Possible Case of Chickenpox

We want to inform you that there is a possible case of chickenpox in school. Chickenpox is a common contagious illness that causes an itchy rash, fever and tiredness. It usually clears up on its own within 1 to 2 weeks. However, chickenpox can be more serious for certain individuals, including those who are pregnant or have weakened immune systems.

Please watch your child closely for any symptoms. If your child shows signs of illness, please keep them at home, inform us and contact your GP or NHS 111 for advice.

For more details, please read the full letter here.

Thank you for your cooperation.

Easter Break & End of Term Reminders

Tomorrow, Friday 11th April, is a Non-Uniform Day and school will be finishing early at 12:30pm. Please make sure any collection arrangements are in place.

We’ll then break up for the Easter holidays, with two full weeks off. When we return, Monday 28th and Tuesday 29th April will be INSET days for staff training, so students will not be in school on these days.

Students will return on Wednesday 30th April at the normal time.

Wishing everyone a lovely Easter break!

Red Nose Day - Friday 21st March 2025

We are excited to inform you that New Leaf School will be participating in Red Nose Day this Friday, 21st March, as part of Comic Relief. This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to get involved in a fun, charitable event.

Students are invited to take part in a non-uniform day and are encouraged to wear appropriate clothing. They can also add a splash of red if they wish, such as red accessories but there is no expectation to do so.
