Beech’s Base

Year 3 have been busy at Beech’s Base 🙂

Our theme has been plants – linking to our Science inside the classroom.

We have worked hard doing lots of gardening; preparing areas for growing seeds replanting bluebells and even picked Nettles to make soup with. (This went down better than expected 🙂 !!)

In the Creativitree Area we used our artistic skills to create artwork of Tulips with sticks and forks!

We also looked at the life cycle of a flowering plant and recreated the cycle with natural items we found around Beech’s Base.

Class 3B Beech’s Base reminder

Dear Parents and Carers of Class 3B,

This is a reminder to all children in Mr Butler’s class, that they will be spending the whole day at Beech’s Base on Tuesday 3rd May.

Pease ensure your child comes to school dressed for the forest, and is wearing long sleeves and long trousers/bottoms. Please make sure they have a waterproof coat, as usual, and are dressed for the weather. They will also need a change of footwear and complete change of dry clothing, especially socks!
Lunch will take place in the usual way, in the dinner hall.

Kind regards,

Mr Butler

Ukraine Donations Success!

A massive thank you to everyone that donated towards our efforts to support those affected by the war in Ukraine!

We were overwhelmed with the amount of items we received, and feel humbled to know that we have made a difference to the world outside of Newport.

The van (supplied by Peter Booth Electricals) has now taken our items, and therefore we ask that any donations that were to be bought in tomorrow and now donated at another collection point. 

Once again, The Global Avengers, and the whole NJS family would like to thank you for your AMAZING effort at supporting this cause!
