Dear Parents,
Just a reminder that if your child wishes to have their homework efforts rewarded, please send in their completed projects / Orange books in, by the end of Thursday this week.
Children will be tested on their spellings this week.
Thank you for your continued support,
The Year 3 Team
Year 3: we are going to be doing some light PE in the morning at 9am before it gets too warm. Please ensure you have your PE kit in school and a water bottle.

We All Have the Right to be Safe
We believe that everyone deserves a home and has the right to seek safety for themselves and their families.
Children at NJS will be marking this festival by watching some short films about young people who have taken refuge in Britain and the journey they went on to get here, completing some ‘healing’ activities together and by doing some art work inspired by the illustration below.
The illustration marking Refugee Week 2022 is by Nima Javan, a painter specialising in traditional Persian art and contemporary abstract art. Nima’s current work is inspired by ‘Persian miniatures’, using characters found in traditional paintings as well as his own creations. Originally from Quchan in North East Iran, Nima sought refuge in the UK in 2019.
All children that have received a Head Teacher’s Award this week and the last few weeks, are invited to have their lunch at Beech’s Base on TUESDAY next week.
See you there.
Thanks
Mrs Bold and Mrs Yates
Dear parents and carers,
Swimming
Year 3 will be swimming on the first Tuesday of next term (the first day back!). Please ensure your child has their swimming kit. Thank you.
PE kits will also need bringing in/taking home at the start/ end of each week, especially as sports days are approaching.
Spellings
Due to timetabling issues, we did not get around to testing children on their half-termly spelling sets this week. Therefore, this will happen during the first week of the new term.
Lost cardigan
Please be on the lookout for a cardigan with Phoebe’s name in it. It is lost. If found, kindly return it to 3P.
We wish you all a restful half term break.
Thank you for your continued support,
The Year 3 Team
Well done to Dexter and Alexander in 3B, who produced these fabulous Newportopoly boards in response to a homework task about Newport. The level of detail is stunning – the boys even went a took photos around town for their boards! Great work.
Well done to all of our children who participate in art club & I would also like to thank Miss Jenkins, Miss Branton, Miss Crompton & Mrs Wood who have all worked exceptionally hard to produce the most fabulous stage backdrop for our Platinum Jubilee celebrations.
Best wishes Mrs Jukes 😁
Dear Parents and Carers,
Children in Year 3 will be making collages of cityscapes, skylines, and buildings as part of their Art curriculum, this week.
Collage combines various pieces of paper, magazines, sometimes materials, card etc, to make a new picture of something else.
Therefore, please could children in Year 3 bring in some materials to make the collages? We do have materials and resources to use in school, but would be really great if they could bring in any old magazines, papers, etc that you have in the recycling bin!
Thank you for your continuing support.

I have been so impressed by all the children who have entered the NJS Mental Health Week competition. Here are some of the entries – these are all great examples of how to look after your own mental health, as well as supporting the wellbeing of your friends and families! I will be drawing the winners’ names out of a hat on Monday…
