This week we would like to recognise the resilience and positivity shown by our Year 7 learners and their families. Despite the challenges of the past week, it has been wonderful to see how our youngest Secondary learners have continued to support one another and approach their learning with enthusiasm. We are incredibly proud of the way the Year 7 community has come together, demonstrating kindness, adaptability, and a strong sense of belonging.

Thanks again for all the ongoing support from all our teachers, learners and parents. We really appreciate the love we are all feeling during this challenging time. Please continue to reach out to anyone of use via the usual channels if you or your children need any further support or guidance.

Have a safe weekend

Mr Paul

Today we were pleased to bring our Secondary learners together for an online assembly focused on reconnecting as a community. The assembly centred on themes of resilience, supporting one another, and recognising the strength our learners and families have shown during this challenging time.

It was a wonderful opportunity to pause, reflect, and remind our learners that even while learning remotely, we remain a strong and connected community. We shared how proud we are of the way our learners and families have adapted, shown resilience, and continued to support one another.

Thank you to everyone who joined us — it was fantastic to reconnect with so many of you.

We would like to take a moment to commend our Secondary learners for the effort and commitment they have shown in engaging with online learning this week. We truly appreciate the way many of you have continued to stay connected with your teachers and classmates during a challenging time.

Whether you have been able to attend a few live sessions each day, join all of them, or have been working through the activities and assignments shared on Google Classroom in your own time, we are incredibly proud of you. Your resilience, responsibility, and determination to keep learning do not go unnoticed.

Well done to all of our learners, and thank you for continuing to support one another as a community.

As the holy month of Ramadan begins, we would like to extend our warmest wishes to all members of our Secondary community. May this special time bring peace, reflection, kindness, and togetherness to you and your families.

Throughout Ramadan, our Secondary learners continue to show resilience, respect, and a strong sense of community. We are proud of the way they support one another, demonstrate empathy, and embrace the values that make our Wolfpack such a positive and inclusive environment.

We remain committed to supporting our learners’ wellbeing during this time, with adapted routines and a continued focus on balance, understanding, and positive learning experiences.

Wishing all of our families a peaceful and meaningful Ramadan.

Ramadan Kareem from the Secondary Team.

As we move through the term and approach the holy month of Ramadan, we would like to take this opportunity to remind learners and families of the importance of maintaining our uniform expectations and a professional learning environment across Secondary.

High standards of uniform help promote respect, focus, and a positive school culture, which is especially important during a time that calls for reflection, consideration, and respect for others.

Please ensure that:

• Skirts are of appropriate length in line with the school uniform policy

• Footwear is correct and appropriate for school

• Jackets and outerwear worn during the school day are approved school items

• Make-up is minimal and appropriate for a school setting

We kindly ask for your continued support in ensuring learners arrive at school well-presented and ready to learn each day. Any uniform concerns will be addressed by staff to maintain consistency and fairness for all.

Thank you for working with us to uphold the values of respect, responsibility, and community, particularly during this important period.

Please find here the External PAID ECA Providers at Nadeen School for Term 2.
