The Inclusion Crew! Every Saturday at Margate Library from 2pm to 3pm, open to all ages. The club has a variety of activities out for Crewmates to enjoy, including puzzles, arts & crafts, video games, plenty of sensory activities & much more. The group has been set up by a team of neurodiverse & disabled adults to provide a safe space for the young, local neurodiverse community to come & relax, make new friends & try new things without the social pressures that may be felt elsewhere.

It’s been so hot this week, so Mr Foley has made some adaptations to help students stay cool, focussed and regulated in the heat. After the children completed their TEACCH task in the morning, they were allowed to fill their empty tray with water to put their feet into to keep them cool at the desk for learning. During bucket time the children made their own fans to keep them cool which were a big hit and Mr Foley worked with the PE coaches to organise a game of rounders which used cold wet sponges instead of balls to allow PE to go ahead but keep the children cool! It's small adaptations like this which allow students to be successful despite the hot weather.

St Mildred’s Bay have been reading and using the colour monster book all year to discuss their emotions. On sports day, the class read the book again to remind themselves of the colours and emotions, then worked together to make Mr Foley’s mascot race costume. It came out great and the class enjoyed laughing at Mr Foley running in it along with all the other teachers in their costumes!

We were delighted to meet our new reception class for 2025-26 at our Teddy Bear's Picnic yesterday. The children were very excited as they had the opportunity to explore their future classroom; especially enjoying the Mud Kitchen, Sand Area and Water Area. It was fantastic to see so many smiley faces during the event and we look forward to seeing the children again next week for our Stay and Play session. We hope all the parents and children enjoyed it as much as our adults did! 🥰

This week we have been very fortunate to have teamed up with Ursuline College to help support us in our sporting events. Ursuline have provided Newlands with some incredible Sports Leaders, who have coached the children throughout their sporting activities, during Sports Day and our Reception Sports Morning. Their fantastic enthusiasm, patience and knowledge was extremely helpful in enabling all children to succeed at all the activities, and most importantly have fun!

Last week Minnis Bay celebrated Diversity Week by learning about the Japanese festival Um Ni Ho (Ocean Day). Firstly, the children learned about Japanese culture, identifying the capital, key clothing Japanese people wear and traditional food they eat. Then the children focused on learning about the Ocean; what it is, how it is important it is, why we need to look after it and how we can help protect it. The children made posters, illustrating the message ‘save our oceans’, and then participated in their own ‘clean up’ around the forest school area. Great work Minnis Bay! #TeamNewlands

St Mildred's Bay have been working really hard this term, so Mr Foley gave them a reward day to cool off from the heat. We had great fun in the sensory garden with some water play. Splashing in the pool, going down the slide, playing some water twister and getting Mr Foley with water balloons (they had very good aim!) Mr Foley got his own back though with his super soaker! Everybody loved it and had a wet but cool afternoon!

At the end of Term 5 all of the children in Years 1-6 at Newlands took part in Science Day, where children were given the opportunity to conduct a Scientific Enquiry based around a topic or theme. They had to use their teamwork skills, create their own Big Question, make hypotheses and test these using equipment. They then had to record their findings in a clear and concise way using tables, graphs and written responses. The children really engaged with this and came up with some incredible work! On Tuesday 17th June 13 children from across the school were chosen to go to Sandwich Discovery Park to display their work and demonstrate their experiments to other schools in the region, as part of the Great Science Share 10 year celebration with STEM. They spoke confidently, asked many questions and provided great Scientific explanations to others. Their behaviour was impeccable and they made us very proud. #TeamNewlands

Mr and Mrs Musgrove have been working towards the school achieving the next green tree award having received the bronze award last year. ⭐️ We do this by collecting points for various activities and uploading them to the Woodland Trust website. This term Year 1 and 2 planted 2 new trees as part of their Geography topic and St. Mildred's Bay creating Forest Friends. 🌳 These activities have allowed us to reach a total of 12 points, succeeding the 10 points needed to be awarded the Silver Green Tree award! We are 3 points away from Gold. 🥉🥈🥇 Can we achieve it before the end of the year? Watch this space!

Last term, Minnis Bay thoroughly enjoyed a trip to Wingham Wildlife Park. The children were very fortunate and enjoyed learning about how animals are adapted to survive, in a fantastic workshop. The class even got to design their own unique animals with a variety of adaptations. The class made Miss Warner proud with their exceptional behaviour, as they explored all the different species from the noisy otters to the tall giraffes.
