Reception – Staffing update

Dear Parents/Carers of Reception children,

Mrs Cleobury is very pleased to announce that she is expecting her third bundle of joy.

We all hope that Mrs Cleobury will be supporting her class until May half term, at which point she will begin her maternity leave.

We are really lucky to already have two existing teaching assistants that support in each of our Reception classes. This will ensure continued high quality provision over the last half term.

We all wish Mrs Cleobury and her family the very best of luck.

 

Miss Cook

Reminder – NSPCC Number Day – this Friday

On Friday 7th February, Newdale will be celebrating NSPCC Number Day again. Over the past few years, our pupils have loved being involved in our maths-themed activities, listening to maths-related stories and participating in TTRS battles during the day. Pupils from Nursery to Year 6 and invited to ‘Dress up for Digits’ on this day. This means having a maths or number themed outfit – it could be a sports top that features a number or something more creative such as decorating your own t-shirt or even dressing up as a domino, dice or calculator!

As this day is organised by the NSPCC, part of the day is about celebrating and supporting all of the amazing work the NSPCC do to keep our children safe. The children will spend some of the day learning about this charity. As we won’t be collecting cash donations for this dress up day, we ask all families to consider making a donation to the NSPCC so that they are able to continue doing their amazing work!  Donations can be made at this link: Donate | NSPCC

Further information can be found here:

Newdale Number Day 2025

If you have any questions about the day, please get in touch with your child’s class teacher or teaching assistant.

Stay and Share session – tomorrow

We are really looking forward to our ‘Stay and Share’ session this Wednesday at 2:30pm. Please enter your child’s classroom from their usual drop off/pick up location (Years R, 2, 3, 5 and 6 parents should enter from the playground classroom doors, Year 1 and Mrs Everall’s classes’ can be accessed from the decking and Mr Banfield’s class from the stairs by the Visitor Car Park). Playground gates will open at 2:30pm.  For this event, the children will remain in their classrooms so if you are visiting more than one child you will be able to move between the classrooms and spend some time with them individually. We look forward to seeing you all and the children can’t wait to share their learning with you.
