World Cup Highlights Year 6

Good afternoon,

As we are walking to the Town Park on Monday, and therefore not under time constraints related to transport, we will show Y6 the World Cup highlights in the morning before we leave. Year 6 are able to wear football shirts on Monday.

Kind regards,
The Year 6 Team

School Reports Information

Reports will be sent out on Friday 10th July (apart from Year 6).

If any parents require a second copy of their child’s school report please email school on newdale.primary@taw.org.uk by Tuesday 7th 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

Many thanks

Telford Town Park – Monday 6th July

Our trip to Telford Town Park next week is nearly upon us; we would be grateful if you could please ensure that your child has consent on Parentpay to attend as we currently have several outstanding. The weather forecast is looking favourable and as we are walking there and back, please can children have sun cream applied before school and bring a hat and water bottle along with their packed lunch.

Kind regards

The Year 6 team

Y6 End of Year Reports/SATs Results

Dear Parents/Carers,

We would like to inform you of a change to the release date of this year’s Key Stage 2 SATs results.

The results were originally due to be sent to schools on Tuesday 7th July 2026, which would have allowed our Year 6 teachers sufficient time to include them in your child’s end-of-year report, due to be sent home on Friday 10th July 2026.

However, we have just been notified that the results have been delayed nationally and will not be available to schools until Thursday 16th July 2026. As a result, we are unfortunately unable to include the SATs outcomes in reports as planned.

This means that your child’s Year 6 report will be issued one week later than originally scheduled. Year 6 reports will now be given out on Thursday 16th July 2026.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause. Unfortunately, this delay is beyond the school’s control. We appreciate your understanding and patience.

 

Many thanks,

Miss Cook

Helping Year 6 Pupils Prepare for Secondary School Travel – Arriva’s Student Saver Tickets

As your Year 6 pupils prepare to move on to secondary school, we know that many of them will be catching the bus to school for the first time. To help make that transition easier and more affordable, we’d like to let you know about the Arriva Bus travel options available for the 2026/27 school year.

Arriva’s Student and Child Saver tickets are designed to help students save on their daily commute to school. These tickets offer unlimited travel before and after school, on weekends, and during school holidays, so students can travel confidently throughout the year.

For families’ convenience, we offer an easy‑to‑use Direct Debit system to spread the cost of these tickets over affordable monthly payments. There’s no setup fee, no minimum contract, and families can cancel at any time if their circumstances change.

We’ve attached a flyer with more details about the scheme.

 

Thank you for helping us support your students and their families as they move on to secondary school.

Save on bus travel – 2026

 

Y6 Life Learning

Dear Parents/Carers,

Year 6 will be having a Life Learning visitor (PSHE) at the end of term to talk about keeping ourselves safe in-person and online. Please see the parent communication directly from the visitor; please be reassured that this will all be discussed in an age-appropriate manner.

If you have any queries/questions, please speak to your child’s class teacher.

Many thanks
