For children who currently attend school…..

Parents and Carers of Keyworker and Vulnerable children….

Please can we remind you that your child should not attend school if:

*They, or a member of the household, are symptomatic with a cough, temperature or loss of taste/smell.  A test should be sought and the school informed.

*They have been asked to isolate as a contact.

Thank you for supporting us to keep our school family safe.

Thank you NJS Staff for this week

Thank you to our Teachers and Teaching Assistants for teaching keyworker and vulnerable children, producing home learning packs, teaching live lessons, responding to emails, supporting technical issues, offering feedback to work, phoning families to check in, running interventions and offering enrichment activities for our children.  They are ALL amazing and have all worked very hard to coordinate a quality offer for our children.

Thank you to our Admin Team who continue to be available to support communication, attendance and many, many other tasks that support our school community.

A very special mention to our NJS Cleaning Team.  They are incredibly hard working and committed to the very best standards for our school building.  Thank you to our Caretaker who is working hard to ensure the school site is safe.  Our catering team continue to provide meals for those in school who require them and we are grateful to them for everything they do.

I hope all members of our school staff have a relaxing weekend.

Reading / Phonics app FREE until 17th January

Dear Parents,

I would like to inform you of a free offer currently available from The Usborne Foundation, a charity, for their brilliant app, Teach your Monster to Read. This is a phonics-focussed app, which we use in school, to support children who need extra help with reading and blending letter sounds.

It is permanently free on their website, but the app is also currently free too (normally £4.99). There are absolutely no in-app purchases or adverts, so get yourself onto the app store and download it by Sunday 17th January for free! It will continue to be free on the device you download it onto, even after this date.

Please click on the link below for further information. Sign up on the website first, to get a logon for your child, then either continue on your computer, or download the app to a different device and use the same logon you just created.

Sign Up and Play – Teach Your Monster to Read

Kind regards,

Mr Butler
