Pupil Parliament Day of Action Sway
Our Pupil Parliament Day of Climate Action last month was a great success. All classes in our school and nursery had the opportunity to learn about the importance of biodiversity and the impact humans can have on our environment. We also had a focus on adding plant life and flowers to our greenspaces and playgrounds to provide habitats for pollinators and insects. Our Communications Team worked together to take photos of the amazing learning experiences which took place and we have created a Sway to share highlights from this event with you: https://sway.cloud.microsoft/QlgN7e6lEk4wOgta?ref=Link. We hope you enjoy looking at this.

Farewell from Mrs Kerr
As my post at Netherlee comes to an end, I would like to thank everyone for their kind words, support and kindness over the last 12 years. We are so lucky in Netherlee to have such wonderful children, supportive staff and welcoming families, and it’s this that makes Netherlee truly special and leaving more difficult. I’m really excited about starting my new job on Monday and certainly won’t forget the Netherlee years.
We are delighted to let you know that Mrs Jackie Toman, from Monday 11th November will be the Principal Teacher in the nursery. As always please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Have a lovely weekend with your family.
