Winter Production 2024 “Robin Hood and the Sherwood Hoodies” – School Hall Monday 9th – Thursday 12th December 2024 at 6:30pm

All children have a part in the production - Year 6 are the main cast and the remainder of the students each feature in their class dances/scenes throughout the show.

If you would like to come and watch, you can purchase tickets on ParentMail from Monday at 4pm. Cast A will perform on Monday and Tuesday and Cast B on Wednesday and Thursday - YR 6 Main Cast will perform on all 4 nights. (Your child knows which cast they are in)

Please note the maximum number of tickets you can purchase is 2 per family--these can be on the same evening or one for 2 separate evenings. Children under 5 are, unfortunately, not permitted to attend.

We are thrilled to inform you that Northmead Junior and Stoughton Infant School have been successful in our attempt to secure a Guinness World Record for the “Most People Performing Jazz Hands”, with a total of 544 participants, surpassing the previous record by over a hundred people. 

Thank you to all those people who spent money at our recent book fair. In total we took £953.96 which gives us £476.98 of credits to spend on books for the library and book corners.

Is your child in year six? If so, you need to apply online for a secondary school place by 31st October 2024.

HOW DOES MY CHILD’S TEACHER DECIDE WHAT MY BOOK MY CHILD IS READING?

Children will have taken their star reader tests in school over the past couple of weeks. This is a computer-based test that measures a child’s reading ability through a series of 34 questions. Every test for every child is different, and the computer selects different questions for each child dependent on how well they answer the previous questions. Essentially, the computer adapts the test to suit your child. This is not just a test of word reading, it is also a test of comprehension and understanding.

We have been informed by our school catering team - Cleverchefs - that their price for a meal is increasing to £2.70 from September. As you know, food costs continue to rise and this has led to the price change.
