Year 6 reports will be sent home on Tuesday 11th July (this is the date we expect to receive SAT results).

If your family circumstances mean that two copies are required for those with Parental Responsibility this request should have been made to njs.admin@taw.org.uk and we can arrange this for you.

All school reports:

You will also have a personal comment and an attendance print out for the year to date. All reports contain a feedback sheet for your child and yourself to complete and return to school.

Newport Food Save and Share

4 children and Mr Marsh visited the Food Hub in Newport this morning. The children learnt an awful lot about where food comes and the amount of work that goes in by the volunteers to prepare it each Monday. A special mention has to go to Fiona who gave us a tour, allowed the children to explore and ask as many questions as possible and set up the visit up. It was a fantastic morning.
