Today our school was drowning with denim and kindness as we celebrated Jeans for Genes Day! Pupils and staff proudly wore their jeans to raise awareness and funds for children affected by genetic disorders.

From classroom discussions to creative activities, our children learned about the importance of inclusion and compassion — all while helping to make a difference. Together, we raised £52 for this fantastic cause!

A huge thank you to our amazing families for your support and generosity. 💫

What an amazing day we had for TT Rockstar Day! From the outstanding effort the children and adults made to dress up as rockstars, to dancing our socks off at the disco! We had a fun filled day, celebrating all of the hard work the children have been doing on TT Rockstars throughout the year.

What an amazing afternoon we had, watching all of our talented children take part in our school talent show! The children and staff were all blown away with the performances the children put on and how confident they were! From singing and dancing, to telling jokes and performing magic… Nettlesworth really has got talent!

Our year 6’s had an amazing time at their prom. They all looked amazing and dressed up for the occasion! They danced the night away and showed off their singing skills on the karaoke! What a way to end their Primary School experience.

Huge congratulations to the children who have achieved 100% attendance from September and never had a day off school – we are very proud of you all! What an amazing achievement!

We would like to applaud the children who have achieved 96% or more since the beginning of the academic year too – Keep this up!

The children had a lovely time at our Year 6 leavers assembly. Mrs Lee talked about how proud she was of all of our amazing year 6’s and gave them some amazing words of advice for their journey to secondary school. We also had a heartwarming performance from our reception children, of The Irish Blessing. We wish all of our Year 6 children the very best of luck in their next journey!
