Message from The Head of Junior School

As we come to the end of term, I just want to say a huge thank you for your support from all of us in the Junior School. As the restrictions have eased it has been wonderful to see the students immerse themselves fully into life at NLCS with many participating in ECAs, House events, Sports xtures and mini exhibitions. House breakfasts have been enjoyed by all and will continue next term. National Day celebrations provided a wonderful feel to school life especially seeing the falcon, police dog display and traditional dancing. The art work produced across the grades has been of a high quality and the students should be proud of collaboratively producing some excellent pieces that showcase their artistic skills including sketching and weaving. It was delightful to see Pre KG and KG1 participate in their Winter themed singing. The Grade 3 production of Peter Pan was a particular highlight especially as the students were able to perform to a live audience. The students have been involved in a rich programme of learning this term with several grades having the opportunity to visit various venues in Dubai to support their units of inquiry including Kidzania, Oli Oli, Jam Jar and Woo Hoo. Our Student Council have continued to lead initiatives across the Junior School for the bene t of all students including creating a Lego wall and a purposeful reading area on the rst oor. It has also been lovely to see you all in school again this term for key events and for parent’s evenings. Thank you for your generous donations for the gifts of gratitude for the support staff. I know they are thrilled to receive them.

As we look ahead to the New Year, we remain optimistic that 2022 will be a better year for everyone globally.

On behalf of all the Junior Team may I take this opportunity to wish you and your families a wonderful holiday and I look forward to seeing the children back at school on 2nd January.

Enjoy the break with family and friends and please keep safe and well.

Warmest wishes,

Emma Navin Head of Junior School
