A few reminders for children in Yr 6 ahead of Leavers’ Day tomorrow

• Straight to church for leavers service. (A member of the year 6 will meet you there. Hi-5 club can come to school as normal and will be walked down!) GREEN JUMPERS to be worn!
• Shirt signing taking place tomorrow – please remember you marker pen (Sharpie or something similar)
• Leavers’ Party taking place after school. Please see previous message about this. Bring a change of clothes for the party!
• Remember to bring a bag 4 life in order to carry home your old NJS books.

Please can we ask that all year 6 children bring a bag 4 life to school with them by Wednesday. We will be sending all NJS work books home on Thursday and children will need a sturdy bag in order to carry them.

We do not recommend plastic carrier bags as these will break. Please try and bring a strong bag 4 life if possible.

We are very proud of the winners from this year’s rotary newspaper competition! The entries were to a fantastic standard and all children that took part should be proud of themselves. After deliberating over the top 3 for each class, Jane and Margie selected the following children as the winners:

6J

1st – Olivia

2nd – Harry

3rd – Willow

6B

1st – Amelia

2nd – Harley

3rd – Holly

6M

2nd – Saul

3rd – Arthur

Congratulations to:

For achieving their Silver Badge!

On Monday afternoon Mrs Moody will take you to the park as a reward for your excellent behaviours.

There could be more by Monday!

A reminder for children in yellow and green house that it is the swimming gala on Thursday.

Gala will be 2-3pm and children can be collected by a parent/carer from the pool. All remaining children will be walked back to NJS by staff.

Please can children in Yr 6 bring their PE kits with them to school tomorrow (Wednesday) as we have been invited to BBS for a tennis session with their staff & children in the afternoon. Children will be collected from NJS as normal.

Only children attending BBS will be taking par, the remaining children will remain at school with Mr Marsh.

We would like to wish all our year 6 children who will be visiting their new secondary school the best of luck for their transition on Monday & Tuesday.

We expect the children to wear their green school jumper for their transition days.

We can’t wait to hear about how well you have all got on!

Just to let parents/carers know, class photos of Yr 6 will be appearing in a special edition of the Shropshire Star – Primary School Leavers on Monday 14th July 2025.

The attachment contains more information on this – including on how to pre-order your copy.

Only children who have parental permission for their image to be shared with the media will feature. If you would like to know more about this, please contact your child’s class teacher.

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.
