Smith is a product of Celtic’s academy but left the club last summer to become East Fife’s first-choice goalkeeper.
At just 18, he amassed 28 appearances between the sticks for the Scottish side last season.
Smith's arrival will see him join up with Newcastle’s academy sides where he will compete with goalkeepers Will Brown, Max Thompson and Steven Bessent.
