NJS Support Ukraine – Letter Home Today
Every child in the school will today be bringing home a letter about our efforts to support those affected by the war in Ukraine.
The Global Avengers Team are working to collect donations which can be sent over to families and offer them some much needed support with essential items. Please refer to the letter to establish which items are required.
There will be boxes ready to collect donations from each of the entry/exit gates from Monday 7th March. Please use the attachment to access the letter if necessary.
Thank you for your continued support in our effort as a school to make a difference. Ukraine Letter
Year 6 Half Term Homework
Year 6 children will have been sent home with a CGP booklet, or an A4 printed booklet to complete over the half term.
The aim of this is to ensure retention of the key skills we have learned so far this term. We advise that children spend about 90 mins a week (1.5 hours) on their homework as this will prepare them well for the increase in homework during their transition to secondary school.
The CGP booklets offer 10 minute tests, which are great to recap and revise for the children. Work can be completed directly into the booklet. Please be aware that we are yet to cover certain aspects of the Year 6 curriculum and therefore there may be questions that your child is unsure of.
Enjoy the break!

Year 6 White T-Shirt Reminder
Morning Y6,
Just a reminder that ALL children in Year 6 will need to bring a plain white t-shirt into school with them next week for their tie dye art project.
We recommend a plain white round neck t-shirt which will need to be labelled with the child’s name or initials.
6B will be doing this on Monday so will need to ensure they have their white t-shirt with them on their first day back!
Enjoy the half term break.

Happy Half Term!
We are very pleased to launch our first edition of Maths Monthly – a monthly newsletter which will keep you up to date with Maths within school, offer some challenges to attempt at home, and provide some key messages including what you can do to support your child’s learning at home.
This edition has a lower/upper KS2 challenge, as well as explaining what each year group has been learning this week, plus what they will be learning on their return to school.
Have a wonderful half term break!
