Welcome to our new website! We are incredibly proud of the successes and achievements of our students and want to be able to share and celebrate these with you.
We will be adding to the website every week in order that you can quickly and easily access the most up to date information about the school and the events taking place. Our twitter feed has also been re-launched so look out for Newminster news as it happens.
After only a few weeks of playing together, the Chantry and Newminster Samba Band are all in time creating upbeat rhythmic sounds on their drums and percussion instruments.
On Thursday 23rd October Newminster went pink! Our pink themed non uniform day raised funds for Breast Cancer Awareness and the outfits were fabulous – including Mr Dick teaching football in a pink tutu as well as an array of pink hair around the school.
Thank you – you all looked fabulous! 
The Newminster and Chantry Ceilidh band, led by Mrs Hedley, have made fantastic progress since beginning in September. On 21st October they were joined by the Kevi Ceilidh band and after half term, pupils from Rothbury will also be joining them.
On Thursday 23rd October Newminster PTA hosted a fancy dress Halloween Disco in the school hall.
There was a great turn out and it was a great way for students to finish off the half term.
Thanks to all those who came to support and to the PTA for organising.
On Thursday 23rd October, we will be holding a pink themed non-uniform day in aid of Breast Cancer Support.
Please come wearing pink and we are asking for a £1 contribution – all proceeds that we raise will go to Breast Cancer Support.
