It has been brought to our attention that some children and parents might benefit from a reminder about safe use of the internet and especially a reminder about the risks associated with social media such as Instagram. The link below might be very useful to look at parents and share with children.

Thank you,

Please help us to keep our NJS family safe…. please practise social distancing at all times when dropping off and collecting your children from NJS.

We appreciate your support.

Please can we remind you that Friday (23rd October) is a PD day and school is closed to pupils.

We will see you back in school on Monday 2nd November.

Please can we remind our families about our Healthy Eating Policy.

Children are very welcome to bring a breaktime snack into school.  This should not be chocolate, crisps etc. Instead we ask that this is a piece of fruit, vegetable or bread snack.

Please remember not to send nuts into school.

On Wednesday you will be ParentMailed a link to our Harvest Assembly.

Please can we ask that families keep this link private for their own viewing and request that this is not shared or posted on social media.

We hope you enjoy it!

There will be trolleys positioned by the entrances on Wednesday morning for any donations you would like to make to Newport Foodbank on the occasion of our annual Harvest Festival.

Newport Foodbank would be especially grateful for tinned meat, tinned fruit, coffee, tinned vegetables, UHT milk and tinned puddings.

Newport Foodbank and NJS appreciate your support for our local community.

If you know anyone interested in this vacancy please encourage them to look at the details on the link above.

I believe there is some misunderstanding…. there are currently no COVID positive NJS pupils or staff.

As previously advised if this is ever the case the school would contact members of its community as a matter of urgency to ensure you are all informed of the situation.

Thank you for your support.
