On Saturday our Year 5s and 6s participated in a Rugby Festival at Thanet Wanderers. The team showed tremendous courage and sportsmanship, as they gave it their best in a new sport. The children were lucky enough to receive coaching between matches from Mrs Clement and former student Ellie to help prepare them even further for the matches. With every game, the children became more determined to win, as they continually developed new skills and tactics. Their positive mindset and persistence was admirable. The children had a fantastic time, and it was wonderful to see so many spectators supporting Team Newlands.

Last Wednesday, our Year 5s were fortunate to have a fantastic sporting opportunity provided by Ursuline College. The children were able to take on exciting new sports, as they jumped onto the trampolines, and climbed the climbing walls. Miss Bolden and Miss Warner were extremely impressed with the children's enthusiasm and perseverance as they stepped outside their comfort zone and tried something new. Every child gave it their all, and had a fantastic time. 😍

St Mildred’s Bay had an Easter Egg Hunt before the half term! The children scavenged in the sensory garden for plastic eggs which were full of sweets and parts of a riddle. The children had to solve a series of riddles taking them all around the school including to see Mrs Farbrace, who had the final riddle, which revealed their Eggs were in the ACE room! They also created Easter egg stained glass windows for the class. A fun filled half day for everybody involved, we hope everyone had a great Easter Break! 🐣

The Engineering club, sponsored by South Eastern Rail, was in full swing before the half term! The children were making good headway with their builds. Designs had been completed and the construction of the carriages was underway. KS1 had started to paint their carriages and use saws to create their axles. KS2 were beginning to make the many components to make their chassis, which will require many pulleys, a motor and a battery pack to make it move both backwards and forwards. In week 1 of Term 5 we will be joined by a real-life engineer from South Eastern Rail, who will be guiding the children through the tricky parts of assembly.

This term the school council have been looking at litter and trying to make Newlands and the surrounding area a cleaner place to be. The school council signed up for "The Great Big School Clean". The classes in the school have been learning about litter in PSHE this week and how in the UK over 2 million pieces of litter are dropped a day! The school council wanted to lead by example by completing a litter pick in the school today. The children started at the sensory garden, and worked their way around the border of the school field into forest school where lots of rubbish is blown into the school grounds from outside. In total, we collected over 100 pieces of litter in 20 minutes of our lunch time, including snack wrappers, plastic bags and even a nappy that had been thrown over the fence into a bush at forest school. After our pick the children reflected. One child said "it is so sad there is so much rubbish in our school. It takes moments to pick it up and put it in the bin." Many other students on their lunch break were inspired and wanted to join in, which is why Mr Foley has printed more of the sheets that will be sent home so if the children get a free moment during the holidays, they can get involved and clean their local area. Well done to the school council, for starting to make a difference. #teamnewlands #GBSchoolClean #LitterHereos #LoveWhereYouLive
