Reminder about additional copies of reports

Reminder – End of year reports will be sent home with your child on 9th July.   If an additional copy is required by a parent who does not live at the child’s home address, you must contact the school office on 387720 to make a request by no later than Monday 5th July.   

Please ensure that you keep your copy of the report safe, especially if your child is in Year 5.  Some secondary schools (such as Thomas Telford) require a copy to be sent with the application for Year 7 places and we will be unable to make further copies for you once they have been archived.

Update: 28.6.21

Dear Parents/Carers,

 

Unfortunately we have had 2 more positive cases in school (not related to any previous cases we have had).

 

Thank fully our online learning offer is established and that teachers can switch rapidly to avoid children missing more of their education.

 

If your child is any of the bubbles that have been told to isolate, yet you are finding it difficult to gain online access, please call the school and we will do all we can to help.

 

Our procedures in school are as tight as they have ever been and we hope that this outbreak has rapidly been brought under control.

 

As ever, if your children are displaying signs of illness, or in fact if anyone in your house is showing signs of illness, please play it safe and keep children off and get them tested.

 

This virus variant seems to display itself with a headache and cold like symptoms.

 

Luckily due to timings, the bubbles sent home today will be welcome back next Monday, so thankfully only miss 4 more ‘in school’ days where they have to isolate.

 

The Newdale team will continue to work so hard in ensuring the online offer is as high a standard as possible.

 

Thank you for your ongoing understanding and support.

A big well done to Teddy who has managed to achieve our biggest step total so far! Running all of those laps certainly paid off!

Year 1 – Looking after our teeth!

As part of Healthy Lifestyles Week, Year 1 learnt all about looking after their teeth. We went to an assembly and listening carefully to the visiting dentists. We learnt how we should correctly brush our teeth and brought home a leaflet with some top tips!

Can you remember how to brush your teeth properly?

Yesterday, all children should also have brought home a brand new toothbrush, toothpaste and maze activity sheet to test whether they can make healthy choices when looking after their teeth! We have set the children a challenge – if they can impress their grown-ups at home with their super teeth cleaning skills and/or complete the maze activity, we have some special stickers to give out next week! Let us know how you get on with looking after those shiny, white teeth!! We can’t wait to see some dazzling smiles on Monday morning! 😀

Have a lovely weekend,

Miss McCullagh

 

ART DAY 2021

Art Day 2021

Next Thursday 1st July 2021, we will be holding our annual Art Day in school!

This is a fun day, where we all get creative, learn new techniques, learn about different artists, and create our own wonderful masterpieces.

Our theme for this year’s art day is ‘Maths in Art’. We will be getting arty, using shapes, angles, illusion, perspective, symmetry to name but a few.

For this day, your child is allowed to come to school in clothing that you don’t mind getting messy! Old clothing or providing an old shirt to protect clothing is recommended.

We will be sure to share photos from the day along with the children’s creations afterwards on the website.

Thank you for your support.

 

Penalty Shoot Out in Year 1

We had lots of fun at our Children vs. Adults Penalty Shoot Out this afternoon. Mrs Lee and Miss McCullagh tried their best but the children still scored lots of goals! ⚽️⚽️
