Love and Support for Ukraine

April 6, 2022 by admin

UNCRC Article 38 (war and armed conflicts)

What a lovely way to demonstrate our Rights Respecting Gold ethos when 3 of our children created a lovely flag of the Ukraine using post-it notes to write individual messages on in their own time.

Well done to Kayden, Connie and Corey for your very thoughtful effort.

Skipping School

April 4, 2022 by admin

On Friday we had lots of fun joining in a whole school Skipping School day with Gail.

Class 1 had a super fun session and blew Gail’s socks off! She never expected that they would progress from Level 1 – 4 in 1 session. We were able to jump the rope and move forwards and backwards ๐Ÿ™‚



In class 2 Gail taught all of us to skip! She was so amazed at our skills that we quickly progressed onto the big rope and every single one of us had a go at jumping in the rope. How amazing!



In Class 3 we had a fantastic time learning how to skip. We learned lots of new skills and had lots of fun.



 

In class 4 we learnt lots of new skills, like the single and double bounce. We had lots of talented skippers as we have skipping ropes every playtime. Gail was impressed with us and we had lots of fun!



In Class 5, we were able to demonstrate our Rights Respecting Gold ethos in learning a variety of new skipping skills including: single bounce; double bounce; figure of eightโ€ฆ

The children absolutely loved their session with Gail and canโ€™t wait to practice their skills during play and dinner times.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week 2022

March 28, 2022 by admin

This week in school we have been celebrating Neurodiversity.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week is a worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences. It aims to transform how neurodivergent individuals are perceived and supported by providing schools, universities, and organisations with the opportunity to recognise the many talents and advantages of being neurodivergent, while creating more inclusive and equitable cultures that celebrate differences and empower every individual.

Here at Nettlesworth, we have been looking at ADHD, Autism, Tourette, dyspraxia, dyslexia,ย dyscalculia and dysgraphia and celebrating how unique and amazing every human mind is!

For more information about this, follow the link below: https://www.neurodiversityweek.com/school-resources
