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

Y5/6 Indoor Athletics

We had a fantastic day at the Y5/6 Indoor Athletics event at TCAT today. The children looked brilliant in their new sports t-shirts and competed wonderfully across a range of track and field events. It was a thoroughly enjoyable experience to be a part of for Mrs Lane and myself. We eagerly await the results that will come through at the end of the week.

Urgent Book Recall – Please Read.

Please see below for a message that has been circulated by Telford & Wrekin Council:

Parent/Carer Information

Important Safeguarding Notice: Children’s “Spy Dog / Spy Pup / Spy Cat” Books

We want to make you aware of a recent issue affecting some popular children’s books by Andrew Cope, including the Spy Dogs, Spy Cats, and Spy Pups series.

Some editions of these books include a printed web address at the back. This link used to go to the author’s website, but the domain is no longer under his control. It has since been taken over by another party and now leads to inappropriate adult content.

The publisher, Puffin, has paused sales and distribution of the books and is working with schools, libraries, and retailers to remove copies from circulation. They have stressed that the website has no connection to the author or publisher.

What this means for you:

  • If your child has any Spy Dog, Spy Cat or Spy Pups books at home, please check the back for website links and make sure they do not try to visit the site.
  • It is safe for children to continue reading the stories themselves — the concern is only with the outdated link.
  • We recommend talking with your child about the importance of not following web addresses in books without checking with an adult first.
  • Should you have any questions or require any further support please do not hesitate to contact us at educationsafeguarding@telford.gov.ukWe will continue to share updates from the publisher as more information becomes available.
