St Mildreds took a trip to a local supermarket to round up their Thrive lessons with Miss Cornwall around fantasy and reality. Miss Cornwall has been working with the children of St Mildreds to gain an idea on what a well-rounded food shop looks like and how much it costs. The students had very high expectations on what some items on the list may cost, as you can see in our first draft of their shopping list, and were pleasantly surprised to find out that they were in fact a lot cheaper! Everybody thoroughly enjoyed their supermarket trip, and the attending staff would like to say a huge well done to all the students who participated for their fantastic behaviour! Mr Foley was very proud of the children. 'They were all well behaved, used great manners and showed great responsibility throughout. They were great examples of the amazing children at Newlands!' A big thank you also to Ramsgate Asda for accommodating us and doing all they could to support our students.

After the recent Netflix programme Adolescence it was apparent how children use emojis to have full conversations with each other, without adults being aware of what is being said. Please see a number of posters that highlight the meanings behind them. Please understand that context matters and that the meaning of the emoji can vary based on the conversation. It is essential to consider the surrounding text, previous messages and relationships between the people communicating.

On Wednesday 19th March, our Year 5/6 boys took part in the annual TKAT football league - held here at Newlands. They competed against other schools in our region, hoping for qualification to the 'Finals Day' held at Leyton Orient. In their first game, they faced off against Drapers Mills. After conceding a good goal early, the boys responded with a fantastic team goal in the closing minutes - passing through the entire team to equalise. The game finished 1-1 with good momentum to take into the second game. However, they were matched up against a very strong Salmestone team, and despite bright sparks, fell to a 3-0 loss thanks to some amazing football from their opponents. Needing a win in their last game, Newlands took on Dame Janet. In a back and forth game, both teams came very close but the score remained deadlocked at 0-0. However, it was Dame Janet who took the spoils, scoring with the last kick of the game to clinch a 1-0 victory. Despite the results, Mr Bowman and Miss O'Hara were very proud of the effort and team spirit the Newlands Boys showed throughout the day! Next week it is the girls turn - hoping they can fare better and win that illusive qualification to 'Finals Day'!

This week has been Diversity Week in St. Mildred's Bay and Minnis Bay, and the children have been learning all about the Holi Festival. The children had the opportunity to learn about why the Holi Festival is celebrated by Hindu's before participating in our very own Holi celebration. The children's enthusiasm and dance skills were incredible to watch as they participated in learning a bollywood-style dance. After our dance, all the children were very excited as they went outside, ready to finish our Holi Festival celebrations with powdered paint. Everyone was completely covered in a mixture of wonderful colours! 🌈

At Newlands we believe that reading is a fundamental skill in your child's progression. To help with your child's ability to read we use the Read Write Inc (RWI) programme, which is a proven phonics programme that ensures early success in reading, writing and spelling. Here is a slideshow explaining some of the key terminology your child might use at home; as well as the groupings for RWI, which the children are assigned to based on their ability and not their age; and videos on how to get the most from reading with your child at home.

They have been watching cake decorating videos together to get some practice in, in the lead up to the big event. Just one example of the great rewards we can receive for great attendance! 🧁 #TKATACE #oneTKATfamily #AchievingMoreTogether #TeamNewlands

World Book Day at Newlands Primary We had an incredible time celebrating World Book Day at Newlands Primary! The highlight of the day was a special visit from Usborne, who came along to inspire the children and ignite their passion for reading. Their visit, along with our exciting book fair, created such a buzz around the school, with so many children eager to explore new stories. It was wonderful to see so many children making the most of our new costumes, and the excitement around school was contagious! Throughout the day, pupils have been getting creative by entering book competitions, designing their very own bookmarks, and taking part in some fun and challenging quizzes. Most of all, it has been such a joy to hear the children talking all things reading, sharing their favourite books, and discovering new ones together. What a fantastic way to celebrate our love of books! Please see our Facebook page for more photos 😍 #TeamNewlands #worldbookday2025

We are very proud of all of the children that participated in Saturday's Cross Country. All of the children tried their best and ran extremely well. They showed amazing grit and determination as they sprinted towards the finish line. Mr Bailey said "It was fantastic to see so many children running for Team Newlands, and wanting to participate in this sporting event. They made Team Newlands proud, and we hope that this success will inspire more children to participate in the next Cross Country." More photos can be found on our Facebook page. #TeamNewlands
