This week, we were proud to host our ‘Future Me’ Careers Event, where learners from Year 9, 10 and 11 had the opportunity to engage with over 20 representatives from a wide range of companies and sectors across Bahrain.
The event was highly interactive and offered our learners a valuable chance to explore potential future pathways, ask insightful questions, and gain a deeper understanding of the many opportunities available to them beyond school.
A huge thank you to all the organisations and professionals who attended and supported the event, and well done to our learners for their enthusiasm and engagement throughout the morning.
Thank you to all parents who attended this event. Here is the presentation LINK. Furthermore, we will be rerunning the same presentation on Sunday afternoon, 16:00 - 17:00.
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.
Box of Goodness - Donate by 20th December
Drop off your donations and help us support underprivileged children. Every contribution counts - be a part of this meaningful cause!
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.
