Red Nose Day- Friday 19th March 2021

We will be supporting this charity by allowing children to come to school/ nursery wearing their PE kit along with something red. Please do not feel the pressure to buy something red; any splash of red will do!

Red Noses are now on sale on Parentpay to purchase at £1.50 each. Closing date is Monday 15th March at 9am. Red Noses will be given out in class/ nursery on that day. Any noses that haven’t been sold will be advertised on Tuesday 16th March.

Children are not permitted to wear their red nose in school/ nursery until Red Nose day on Friday 19th March.

Due to no cash donations allowed in school/ nursery, we have set up a Red Nose day donation page on Parentpay for you to donate.

MRS TREVOR’S CLASS ONLY

Morning everyone in just Mrs Trevor’s class. TUESDAY 10th MARCH!

We are sending massive apologies but unfortunately we will all have to stay at home today and work online on goggle classroom as we have a positive COVID case in our class.

We will use google classroom today and Mrs Trevor will be available online all day.

I will teach you all the lesson we would have in class on classroom.

First live meet will be at 9am for guided reading.

Again we are sorry about this. See at 9am

Thank you for your understanding.

Mrs Trevor

Message from Miss Cook

8.3.21

Day one complete!

Dear Parents/Carers,

We have had a lovely day. When I say ‘we’ I mean not only the children, but all Newdale teams too! It was an absolute pleasure seeing the smiles and hearing the laughter. I hope the reports you have had from your children reflect what we have seen in school today.

Some points to remember…

Drop off

Please remember we are opening the gates between 8:30 am until 9 am. It was very busy at 8.30 am and registers do not close until 9 am. If you have not got to rush off to work, then coming slightly later would be safer for you and us.

The one way system worked well. We know that it is a long way around for some, but alas it is all we can do at this time to help with reducing infection levels. Remember that adult to adult transmission is the highest when looking at risk. There will be some tiny tweaks to the one way system tomorrow and staff will guide you.

Pick up

Thank you to all parents who helped to keep the one way system running smoothly at home time. Our gates open at approximately 3 pm, to allow for you to collect your child. There will be some tiny tweaks tomorrow and staff will guide you.

PE

The system where children come in dressed in PE kit on PE days works well. Check out the website for confirmation of your child’s PE days.

Playtime/lunchtime

The lunchtime team did a tremendous job today. It is not easy getting 500 + children through lunch in an hour! Again, we have a few tweaks to the system which we will put in place tomorrow.

Illness

At this time of the year there are usually still quite a few bugs around, but as you know we need to be overly cautious for the sake of everyone else. Do not be offended or surprised if you get a call about your children’s health. We need to double check everything and rule out the virus as much as we possibly can.

Thank you for your ongoing support.

Miss Cook

Issues with the school SENDCO email

There seems to be an ongoing issue with the school’s SENDCO email.  If you wish to discuss any SEN matters and are having issues sending your emails, please call school to request a call back from Miss Plimmer or Mrs Powell.  Alternatively, you can use the  newdale.primary@taw.org.uk email address and we will be happy to forward your message on for you.

Message from Miss Cook 5.3.21

 

Dear Parents/Carers,

 

Just a quick message to thank you all for your support with our online learning.

 

I am very proud of the Newdale team for working flat out in generating such a comprehensive offer.

 

All teaching will resort to ‘face to face’ from Monday and as a result all online learning will cease.

 

We have had some lovely messages thanking the team for their efforts. These messages mean a great deal to them so thank you.

 

We are all looking forward to welcoming the children back. Reassure them that we will be giving them time to catch up with their friends and that they will easily slot back into their normal routines.

 

Have a great weekend everyone.

 

Miss Cook
