Newport Town Council Christmas Card Competition

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Newport town council are holding their annual children’s Christmas card competition. There are wonderful prizes to be won and the overall winner will be invited to turn on Newport’s Christmas lights!

We are inviting all children to take part and feel free to make a design over the half term holiday. You can paint, draw or colour to produce a wonderful creation. We would love to encourage your child to enter.

The competition rules state that the card should be A5 folded in half, no bigger than 10.5cm by 15cm. Please clearly print the following information on the back of the card:

  1. Name
  2. Age
  3. Home Address
  4. School Year Group
  5. School Name

Please can all cards be sent to all class teachers no later than 9am on Thursday 6th of November as we will need to sort all designs and prepare to hand them into the Guild Hall before the closing date on Friday 7th November. Any queries please e-mail Mrs Jukes on natalie.jukes.taw.org.uk.

Much appreciated and good luck children.

Best wishes Mrs Jukes

Year 4 Weekly Reminders for Week Commencing the 3rd of November

On the first week back after half term, the children will be swimming on Tuesday. They will need to bring in their swimming costumes, a swimming hat and towel. We will all be swimming in the morning.

Mr Lawson and I would like to thank all of the children for a wonderful first half term back. We hope the children have a great half term holiday. New homework will be handed out in the first week back. If any outstanding homework books could be handed in by Monday the 3rd that would be greatly appreciated. Children need to continue to learn the spellings featured in the weekly reminders and continue to revise multiplication from the 3 and 4 times tables.

A huge thank you to all of the children who have made wonderful dream catchers. We have made a super display in school so these will be handed back after half term.

World Mental Health Day assembly

Today we have marked World Mental Health Day at NJS. We began the day with a special assembly lead by The Guardians of Safety. Please see the attached slides which were shared with the children.

This afternoon, each class has done something a little bit different. They have discussed ‘what fills up their cup’ and then spent time doing these things. Look out for photos on year group website pages!
