Green Day was very special for our school family:  a day of remembrance and celebration through carefully chosen enjoyable activities that Mrs Green loved so much.

Thank you to everyone who made the day and garden possible and so special:

Mrs Green’s family

St Andrews Church

Travis Perkins

Field Aston services

Optigro

Lichfield Maize Maze

Families who donated plants

Family and friends who sponsored children for their walk for Macmillan Cancer Support

Staff who baked Victorian sponges!

Everyone made this special day possible: thank you.

Thank you from NJS to Field Aston Services, Optigro and Lichfield Maize Maze who have kindly donated and delivered ten tonnes of top soil for phase two of Mrs Green’s Garden.

We are very grateful and encourage you to consider visiting Lichfield Maize Maze:https://www.lichfieldmaizemaze.co.uk/

Thursday 16th July is ‘2026 Leavers Day’ at NJS.

We will begin the day with a Leavers Service at St Nicholas’ Church beginning shortly after 9am.  The whole school will attend this event.  Year 6 parents (apologies we cannot accommodate parents from other year groups) are welcomed to attend however this is limited to 2 guests per child please.

We will return to school and the children will enjoy the option to have ‘Leavers Lunch’: a menu they have designed as a celebration of their time at NJS.  This will be the menu for the whole school on this date.

During the afternoon the children will be allowed to have their NJS t shirt signed by members of our school family.  Please send them with pens for this: ‘Sharpie’s’ are ideal!

NJS are then hosting a Leavers Party for the Year 6 children 3.30-5.15pm.  Staff will be organising a wide range of activities for the children to enjoy and we will finish with some chips and an ice pop! Children should wear practical clothing for this party: trainers and comfortable clothes as some activities will be ‘sporty’!  If you are collecting your child please do so from the main yard at 5.15pm.

Simply register using the weblink above.  If you see an item you would like please ‘send a message’ stating your child’s full name and class.  The school office will then send this item home with your child on the next school day.  Easy!

We hope this helps families to access pre loved uniform with ease.

Please remember throughout the year we appreciate donations of pre loved uniform to NJS: please bring it to the school office (green jumpers, logo polo shirts, grey items, fleeces… all appreciated!)

Mrs M

Please can we ask families to log onto ParentPay and clear their dinner arrears.

It is important this is cleared before the Summer break.
