Dear Year 4 Parents and Carers,

We absolutely understand, like ourselves, feelings of frustration around the message of the need to self isolate that we gave to you on Saturday.  It is difficult for families and of course the children.  However, it is essential that Year 4 children remain in the family home until Friday 20th November when they return to school: this means they cannot leave the home for any reason including for a walk, for shopping or to take a sibling to school.

It is important we all do the right thing to reduce transmission in our community and I appreciate your support with this.

We are thinking of you all.

Mrs M

Thank you all for your support yesterday when you received your phone calls; we really do appreciate it, it makes a difference to us.

Our very best wishes go to our staff member and to everyone in the bubble that they remain well.

All other household members can continue to attend for work/school/college etc. It is the Year 4 children who need to remain at home.  Hopefully everything was explained in the letter you received yesterday but if you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact me.

If you did NOT receive a ParentMail from me yesterday please can you make me aware by emailing nicola.moody@taw.org.uk with the email address you wish to use on ParentMail.

The team are issuing home learning this evening for tomorrow.

We will be in touch tomorrow with further information about our remote learning offer during this period.  We will be offering some sessions for your child on Microsoft Teams: you may want to download the free App ready!  If access to a laptop/ipad/device is going to be an issue for this period please can you drop me an email to let me know.

Thank you as always for your support, stay safe.

The children who come to NJS are amazing! They have shown that they are resilient and can adapt to different situations. There are some who do need some extra support and there are those who have anxieties returning to school after breaks. Please use the link to access helpful information to put measures in place before Monday morning arrives.

As always we are looking forward to seeing the children for another half term!

In 4J, we have been looking at soundscapes for music. This includes using body parts in different ways to create a new sound. The children were able to use their hands and feet to create a storm like sound.

We hope you enjoy it!

Good morning,

On Thursday, 4J and 4NJ will be using paints in an art lesson. Could all children please bring in a suitable art shirt for the lesson. This could be an old t-shirt or shirt that you don’t mind getting messy!

If some children don’t have a shirt, they will complete the activity without paint.

Happy Monday!

Miss Jones and Mrs Jukes
