Promoting Kind Words & Kind Hands

Hi all.

In school, we spend a lot of time encouraging children to use kind words, calm choices, and trusted adults to help solve problems or disagreements in class and in the playground. In class, we talk about the difference between standing up for ourselves and answering unkind words and actions with retaliation.

I appreciate all parents and carers in your continuation to promote actions from your children that align with the school values at NRPS. Children should remember that if they have a disagreement with another, that they should make a trusted adult know. This is the safest and most positive way to deal with conflict in school.

We are working hard to build a classroom where children feel safe, respected, and able to manage disagreements peacefully.

Thank you, as always, for your continued support.

World Book Day

P2P had a great time on WBD, getting their free book and doing paired reading with Primary 6.

Show & Tell 28th January 2026

Hey everyone,

For show and tell this week, can children bring in their favourite book? Children should pick a book they are passionate about (fiction or non-fiction), one they can talk a little about to the rest of the class.

Mr Palmer will bring his own!

I will remind the children of this requirement this week.

Kindest,

Simon

Before we begin 2026..

I want to thank all of you for a wonderful year so far. Thank you to all for the amazing gifts – it was very very kind and very much appreciated!

I’m looking forward to the joy your children bring into our class and the school.

Thank you so much,

Simon
