Newdale’s Got Talent – Thursday 23rd April

Newdale’s Got Talent Final will take place on Thursday 23rd April 2026 at 5:00pm at Newdale.

Ticket sales have initially been prioritised to parents/carers of pupils taking part in the show. We now have a small amount of tickets remaining that we would like to offer out to the rest of the school.

Tickets are now available to purchase via ParentPay. We only have a very limited number remaining so these are being sold on a first come first served basis. Tickets are £3 each and x2 can be purchased.

PLEASE NOTE – if you are purchasing additional tickets as your child is in the show, we are unable to guarantee that all seats will be together.

Deadline for buying tickets is tomorrow morning (Wednesday 22nd April) at 9am. Tickets will go home with pupils tomorrow.

Y2 Bake Sale – Monday 27th April

Our Year 2 children are preparing for a very special learning experience. As part of their upcoming science and literacy topics, they will be observing real eggs in school and watching them hatch into chicks. This hands‑on project will give pupils the chance to observe, care for, and write about the chicks as they grow, creating a memorable and engaging learning opportunity.

To help fund this exciting project, Year 2 will be holding a Bake Sale on Monday 27th April, taking place after school from 3:10pm to 3:45pm. This will be on the bottom playground. Families from across the school are warmly invited to come along and purchase some delicious treats. All proceeds will go directly towards supporting the chick‑hatching experience.

Thank you for your continued support. Opportunities like this make a real difference to the children’s learning, and we truly appreciate the enthusiasm of our school community.

Donations to school fund

As a school, we are committed to ensuring that all our children continue to have a variety of opportunities to engage through a wide range of trips, visits and visitors. We believe that these experiences help to provide meaningful learning opportunities, as well as support children with their personal development.

As many of you may already be aware, as a school we subsidise our school visits using our own funds as well as money raised from school events. Although our budgets are certainly becoming tighter, we still appreciate that the cost of living has caused many families to also have financial concerns. Where we can, we will continue to contribute towards school trips so that parents are still not paying the full cost. However, our levels of subsidy simply cannot remain as high as they have always been in the past due to budget constraints.

We have a had number of parents who have asked if they could contribute extra amounts towards trips to support those in our school community who may be struggling due to the cost-of-living crisis. If you would like to do this,  please contribute via ParentPay. Every penny will go towards the trip costs.

We thankyou for your ongoing support.

Message from Miss Cook

Incident Update

Dear Parents and Carers,

I want to express my sincere thanks to the children for remaining as calm as possible and for following adult instructions so well today. I am also incredibly grateful to so many members of our local community who rushed forward to support us as we navigated a very difficult situation.

The teams at Newdale moved straight into emergency mode, acted calmly, and followed our procedures to the letter. The emergency services were outstanding and undoubtedly prevented the situation from becoming far more serious. We are extremely thankful for their swift and professional response.

At this stage, we are unsure whether Rock Road will be open tomorrow. Please consider alternative routes, including Brookes Avenue, and think about parking slightly further away and walking in if necessary.

To support this, we will operate a late register system tomorrow. There is no need for families to rush, as access routes may be limited. Children can arrive any time up until 10am without late marks being recorded.

We will be carrying out reassuring circle times and debriefs with the children, and we would appreciate your support in talking to them at home about the fact that school is safe and that we are very much looking forward to welcoming them back tomorrow.

It is never pleasant to have to put emergency policies and procedures into real-life action, but it is reassuring—for us and, we hope, for you as parents—that everything ran smoothly throughout the event.

Thank you so much for your support and for trusting us with your children.

We look forward to seeing everyone tomorrow.

Miss Cook

A massive well done to the entire team today at nursery who got all the children safely out of the building to a safe place so swiftly!
Your children were absolutely amazing under the circumstance, the parents and community helping were such a great support. ❤️🫶🏻
And on that note #anytimefitnesslawley and the #grazingcowlawley we couldn’t have felt any safer and more welcomed, so thank you to all their amazing staff too!
