Maths

The learners decorated ornaments using beads to explore and extend their understanding of patterns.

They applied their previous knowledge of pattern-making while creating their designs, showing great focus and creativity throughout the activity.

Bahrain National Day

The learners were so excited to celebrate Bahrain National Day this week.

Throughout the week we have been doing various activities to prepare for Bahrain National day. Decorating and making flags, cookies and accessories.

We all looked fabulous in red and white and traditional dress during the morning Parade on Thursday!

Year 6 Visit

This week, our learners had a visit from our friends in Year 6! They came to see our classroom and all the different activities we get up to. They played with us, read stories and helped us with our writing! We hope they can come back soon.

3D-Modelling Inventions

Our learners used household items to up cycle into new 3D inventions like Wallace and Gromit did in our 'Drawing Club' animation. They worked both individually and in teams to make their creations.

Christmas with a Pawfect Purpose.

In the spirit of Nadeen’s core values of love, care, and community, we are excited to introduce “Christmas with a Pawfect Purpose.” This special initiative gives our community an opportunity to spread kindness during the festive season by supporting our animal friends in need.

In collaboration with Bahrain Rescues we will be setting up a Christmas tree in the learner entrance decorated with wish-list tags. Each tag will include an item or small contribution that families may choose to provide. Children are welcome to pick a tag from the tree and bring in the corresponding item.

Our Wishlist (all items valued at 5 BD or less):

A bag of cat litter
A bag of cat or dog food
A cosy winter blanket for the dogs
Cleaning supplies
Apples or carrots for Bahrain Rescues’ resident donkey, Dolly

Thank you for helping us make this festive season extra meaningful through small acts of compassion that make a big difference. Your support truly embodies the kindness at the heart of our school community.

Winter Shoebox Appeal

Nadeen School is once again supporting the Migrant Workers Protection Society (MWPS) Winter Shoebox Appeal. This annual initiative takes place in November, as we approach the winter season, and aims to collect essential items for vulnerable members of our community.

We invite your child to participate by helping to pack a decorated shoebox or backpack with much-needed items. The children will box these up at home and bring them into school.

Please see the attached flyer for general information. We are asking for donations of toiletries (such as toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, and shampoo) and dry foods, including lentils, rice, dried milk powder, and spices.

We will be collecting donations from next week in the Learner entrance and our contributions will be handed over to the MWPS later on.

Every donation makes a difference, and your support for this important cause is deeply appreciated.

Let Us Know If Your Child Is Absent – New Email!

We are pleased to inform you that a dedicated email address has now been created for reporting learner absences. Please use attendance@nadeenschool.com to notify the school if your child will be absent on the day. All of the absence correspondence should as always go through the form tutor. This will help us ensure accurate attendance records and streamline communication. Thank you for your cooperation.

Canteen Acess for Primary Learners

We will begin phasing the purchasing of food from the canteen into Primary from Wednesday, 14th October, starting with Year 6 learners. To support the smooth operation of this process, learner cards will be kept in school and given to students at lunchtime to make purchases.

Please note: learners can only purchase food if they have a card.

If you would like your child to buy lunch from the canteen, you will need to purchase a learner card. Instructions for how to purchase the card can be found spare APP.

Please ensure there is sufficient money loaded onto the card to allow your child to buy food. You can use the SPARE app to top up the card, view what your child has eaten, and purchase meals in advance.

We are aiming to introduce this system to Year 4 and Year 5 learners after the half-term break. We need this time to carefully organise the process so that we can maximise efficiency and ensure a smooth experience for all learners.

We thank you for your patience and understanding during this introductory phase.

In case of any questions, please contact directly support@paywithspare.com
