Sarah was elected as School Council Chairperson during Friday's assembly.

Just before Christmas, every student at Newman School received a free book from the reading initiative ‘Bookbuzz’, along with an accompanying letter. There were several books to choose from, and everyone enjoyed watching the author talk about their books on the Bookbuzz website before they made their decisions.

Hopefully, over the Christmas break, students may have had time to read their books, and now we are running a competition to see who can write a book review of their chosen book. If students want to record their review inside, or write it, they can do so with Mrs Lay in U5 any break or lunchtime.

We would like to say a massive thank you to everyone who helped out at the Christmas fayre and to all those that purchased raffle tickets. We have raised a grand total of £1100 which will be paid into school fund!

We would also like to say thank you to the following organisations for their generous donations of raffle prizes:

• Eden Camp
