Keeping Our School Safe….
Please can we ask that parents/carers do NOT bring dogs onto school site at drop off and collection times. Please do not put our staff in the difficult position of asking you to remove them.
We fully support children scooting and biking to school: amazing for the environment, safe travel and physical health. We do ask that children do NOT ride bikes or scooters on school site due to the volume of pedestrians and the risk this poses. We would appreciate your support in ensuring children do this.
Avenue Road and St Nicholas’ Park….
A resident has been in contact with the school on behalf of residents to raise a concern about parents and carers parking across driveways and on double yellow lines. Families have also been reported to have been walking on private gardens.
Please can we ask that our school community is considerate of our neighbours and that we make safe and considerate choices about travel to school. The residents are stating they will report concerns, with evidence, to the Police and Enforcement Officers.
Only this week Travel Telford have been in school speaking to the children about the benefits of Active Travel to school. It would be great if parents and carers could support children with finding opportunity for active travel to school by bike, scooter or walking.
Most of all let’s work together to keep our local roads safe for our children on their journey to school.

Summer Term Clubs
Please find below details of the clubs for the Summer Term which will commence from Monday!
These clubs are now available on ParentPay.
Please can we remind you:
*Once you have selected a club on Parent Pay you will have a place. You will have no further contact. If Parent Pay does not display the option to select a club then all spaces have been taken for this term. If you are unsure please contact the office for clarity.
*Please be fair to others in the quantity of clubs you access for your child: we suggest a maximum of two as being sufficient each term.
*Please remember that clubs are FREE at NJS and run by our own staff! This is an EXCEPTIONAL offer and we are extremely grateful to our team for their commitment. In return we ask that each week you check our Facebook page or website for the following week that your club is running (occasionally due to other commitments staff may need to cancel their club). We will never cancel a club on the day: if the club your child is attending cannot run for a ‘last minute’ reason we will find an alternative for your child.
*Please collect your child promptly! All after school club collection is from the gates onto the main playground closest to Avenue Road South. Staff will bring your child here for dismissal.
Cross Country
103 NJS children entered the Telford and Wrekin cross country league today! What a team!
We are immensely proud of all of the children, their success and sportsmanship. They were a pleasure to take.
