Yr 6 Visit to Crucial Crew

Year 6 enjoyed their visit to Crucial Crew yesterday. Children were guided through workshops on stranger dangers, road safety, water safety, knife crime, vaping, fire prevention, dangers of alcohol and their own health and well-being.

The sessions were run by West Mercia Police and the children seemed to really enjoy learning about ways to keep themselves safe after leaving NJS.

Kooth visit

Thank you to ‘Kooth’ for visiting year 6 this morning. It was good for the children to learn ways to adjust with the imminent transition to their new secondary school.

Yr 6 Tie Dye t-shirt

Please can we ask that all year 6 children bring in a plain white t shirt so that we can complete a leavers’ tie-dye with them.

A plain, round-neck white t-shirt is ideal, much like their PE tops.

Please make sure you write the child’s name on this top in permeant marker.

We are hoping to complete this project over the next few weeks.

 

Yr 6 Crucial Crew – Parent Pay

Please can we ask that parents ensure that children have been given permission for Tuesday’s visit to Crucial Crew.

There is no fee for this visit, but permission must be given. Without permission, children will have to remain at school.

Many thanks.

Friday – Yr 6 Children at School

Today the Year 6 children who stayed at school, have had a fierce rap battle, the task was to write and perform a rap about our school. We definitely have some hidden talent in year 6! We had a couple of very excitable (and loud!) games of bingo, a biscuit break and some fun playing and learning how to code on scratch.

Yr 6 Walk to Greggs

We plan to take the children who are not on the London residential to Greggs & the park tomorrow. Please can we ask that children come to school in comfy footwear and bring with them a maximum of £5 should they wish to visit Greggs/Lidl for something to eat.

Many thanks.

Departure for London…

Parents and Carers of London Residential children:

In advance of our departure on Wednesday morning a resident on Avenue Road has contacted ,me with concern regarding the noise we may cause at this time and parking disruption that may occur.

Please can I ask we are considerate to our residential neighbours:

*Please park on Specsavers Car Park and walk to school from there.

*Please stand on the Visitors Car Park outside the front security gate (usual Y6 gate) and NOT on Avenue Road.

Thank you in advance of your support.

Green to be Clean – Special Event!

Tomorrow, we will be holding our Green to be Clean event in school. This has been spearheaded by one of our Year 6 children who feels very passionately about helping those in need of access to clean water.

We are asking children to wear green mufti and to contribute with a voluntary donation (we suggest a minimum of £1) which will all be donated to Water Aid – a charity that help to provide access to clean water across the globe.

At 3.15pm, there will also be a selection of cakes on sale on the main yard which have been baked by some of our Global Avengers, as well as some staff and parents. If your child wanted to bring in any homemade cakes, please feel free to do so!

We are really looking forward to raising money for this charity and allowing the children an opportunity to make a difference to the world around them. An assembly will be held in the morning which will give more information about why we are supporting Water Aid.
