Yr 6 Deer Park – Camera Reminder
Please can we remind you that Yr 6 children are attending the Deer Park on Wednesday for a photography workshop. We will be leaving school at 9am prompt and returning to school by 12:30pm.
Where possible, we ask that children bring their own camera. We have a limited supply of camera/iPads within school, but certainly not enough for every child. If not enough children are able to bring their own camera, children may have to share a device.
Many thanks,

Yr 6 Photogrpahy Workshop
On Wednesday 24th May, Yr 6 will be visiting Chetwynd Deer Park to participate in a photography workshop.
We will be walking from school to the deer park and must arrive before 09:30am so we ask that children are in school promptly that morning for a 9am departure.
We will be arriving back at school just after 12pm so will eat lunch back at school. Children can be hot dinners or packed lunch as normal.
The children will be working with a photographer who will show them photography techniques before they have the freedom to explore the deep park and capture images.
Each child will then select their favourite image to submit for the Newport Show competition, with prizes on offer for the winners.
We ask that children bring their own camera for this visit. In the event that a child does not have access to a camera, we have a limited supply in school that we can lend for the day.
Strictly no mobile phones to be used for the visit.
Please speak to your class teacher if you have any questions about this visit.

Art Club Trip To Fordhall Organic Farm
The art club children have all had a fabulous trip at Fordhall farm in Market Drayton today. We have learnt all about how organic crops grow. The children were able to collect eggs from the community garden & enjoyed learning about cows, lambs & pigs. In the afternoon we have really enjoyed sketching the river & piglets too. Well done to all the children, Ms Branton & Ms Anderson for a fabulous day.

A big well done to year 6 completing the SATs today
Thank you to the PTA for our amazing Year 6 leavers hoodies!
Well done to our amazing Year 6 Pupils…
As you will all be aware Year 6 children across England have been taking the Statutory assessments this week. The Department of Education ask a lot of our 10 and 11 year old children in managing a week of assessment tests. As a school our thoughts are to rise to this challenge but to prioritise the wellbeing of our pupils at all times. Unfortunately these tests won’t recognise the fantastic friends, amazing artists, marvellous musicians or successful sportsmen amongst our children; but as a school we firmly recognise these talents.
Our school community should be very proud of ALL of our Year 6 pupils: they have been excellent this week. They have been resilient, positive and motivated young people who at all times have tried their very best. This is all we can ask and we are so proud of them all.
The NJS team hope they have enjoyed the week. We hope breakfast club, magic sweets, biscuits, extra play and PE have made the challenges of the week manageable. I would like to thank all of the NJS staff team for the support they have given our Year 6 children, whether it be this week or during their junior school journey, they have all made a positive difference to our children.
Thank you to parents and carers who have supported NJS, by working together we give our children excellent opportunities.
Most of all thank you to our Year 6 children for making all of our hard work worthwhile: seeing your resilience, positivity and support for each other in action makes us very proud.
Mrs M
