 The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Celebrations 2022

 Our school will be celebrating Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee on Thursday 26th May.

 We are inviting all children to come to school wearing red, white and blue for the occasion (this can be a combination of all three colours or children can select one of the colours if that is easier).

 As part of the celebration, the children will learn a lot more about what the Jubilee represents and the life and work of our Queen. They will also be creating a piece of artwork, inspired by Her Majesty The Queen which will be displayed as part of the decorations on the day.

 We will be enjoying a traditionally English whole school fish and chip lunch on that day and hope that all children will be able to eat outside – street party style (weather permitting).

 We know the children will enjoy this once in a lifetime event and will look forward to telling you about their day. 

 Thank you for your ongoing support.

Careers Day

Dear Parents and Carers,

At Newdale, dreams and aspirations are harnessed and nurtured. This is the vision for all of our pupils. We teach all children to become self-confident and to take control of their own lives and create their own futures.

To support our pupils to have dreams and aspirations, we plan a careers programme to help inspire them to work towards the jobs of their dreams.

Our school is a place where everyone gets excited about their next steps and futures. We would like to invite you to share your occupations with our children.

Our careers programme has successfully run in school previously and we are looking for willing volunteers to lead activities with pupils or participate in talks.

This years will take place on Thursday 9th June.

We are looking for people who want to share their experience of their own job – The more varied the occupations the greater the learning experience we can provide.

If you are interested, please email the office and we will get back in contact with you.

Many thanks

Miss Broadhurst

Something to make you smile

There are lots of signs of spring at the moment in nursery including lots of nests. We have birds nests in the roof canopy, our bird box and even in our old saucepan! Obviously, we have stopped the children banging on the pan that we usually use in part of our outside music provision.

E-Safety Top Tip – What Three Words app

What Three Words is an app which can give precise locations all over the world. Therefore it would be useful in an emergency, for example if a child was lost or needed medical attention. The child or lost person would be able to share their 3 words so that their location could be found.
If your child has their own phone, we recommend that you download this app so they are able to tell you their exact location.
More information about the app can be found here:
If you need more support or guidance with online safety please contact a staff member or send us an email newdale.primary@taw.org.uk

Nursery opening time

Please note that nursery will continue to open it’s doors at 8.30, earlier than the main school time of 8.40.

Thank you

Eid al fitr

Happy Eid ! Today in nursery we have been talking about the celebrations of Eid. The children looked at a number of resources and videos to help them understand the big event. We have a special little girl Hajrah who talked about the party at home and the sweets for pudding. Her favourite part is when her mommy painted her hands, very beautiful as you can see from the photos.
