The caring staff go above and beyond for the children.

The staff are always pleasant. I think everyone tries their best to provide the best environment for the children. I would recommend this school to other parents as I think it is well rounded. I’ve never had any concerns in the past 7 years since my oldest arrived at Newlands primary. Keep doing what you’re doing Newlands.

Children are care for both mentally and physically.


Safeguarding is taken seriously and when needed I am contacted to discuss any concerns teachers have.


My child is challenged in their learning and I am kept up to date despite working full time.

I think that the best things about coming to Newlands Primary School are learning and seeing my friends.

 

Learning, being happy around you and having friends that don’t bully or betray.

 

Learning, being happy wherever you are and having friends that are always there for you.

 

The teachers help me with everything but I love learning the most and playing with my friends. It is so much fun.

 

Newlands Primary is the BEST! We are kind and well behaved children. We don’t bully kids.  We treat each other equally and fairly! We treat each other how we want to be treated.

 

Just learning, making new friends, always helping and participating in stuff I may not know or learn but I try. I love doing all my work and greeting my teachers. Newlands supports you WITH WHATEVER THEY CAN. They also talk about feelings or if you’re having problems .

 

I enjoy school because all of the subjects are my favourite and I enjoy doing maths.

 

The best thing is leaning and helping and playing with my friends and singing and maths will help me to learn.

 

I love playing with my friends and all the adults are really nice.
