Year 5 was very excited to hear about the endangered ‘loof lirpa’ bird this morning. It has recently been sighted in Britain, and the children were especially excited when they found out that it had been viewed in Newport and the council had telephoned NJS to see if we could coax it to land! Interestingly, the ‘loof lirpa’ is strongly attracted to marshmallows and can be beckoned by shouting “LOOF LIRPA” loudly, whilst standing still and offering marshmallows to the sky. Unfortunately we didn’t manage to locate this extraordinary bird, despite excellent efforts from year 5.

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!

Wednesday 16th March – Ukraine Mufti Day 🇺🇦
Dear parents and carers,
School Council have been thinking about ways we can demonstrate our school values of Compassion and Community. They decided they would like to do a mufti day to raise some money. However, we have been made aware of a national mufti day on Wednesday 16th and they we are all keen to join in and support those in Ukraine!
Therefore WEDNESDAY 16TH MARCH children will be encouraged to wear BLUE and YELLOW for a £1! All money raised will go towards supporting those in Ukraine.
We think this is a great way to some Community and Compassion!
Thank you for your continuing support,
Mrs P and School Council
