Huge thank you yet again to our wonderful Friends of Neatherd for organising an amazing Christmas Fayre at dinner time. The swarms of customers devoured the treats, gifts and even fresh candy floss skilfully woven by our former student Amy!

Music Department Christmas Concert: Ho Ho Ho it’s Chrissssssstmas Wednesday night’s Christmas concert was a mixture of new and old faces and voices. Musicians included the amazing blues band with their energetic rendition of the Madness classic, “One Step Beyond”. This brought back a few memories for many parents and teachers and almost had Mr Devonish dancing in the aisles! Talented singers and assorted instrumentalists sang and played in a range of styles; blues, classical, pop, rock and Christmas songs. A festive highlight of the evening was the ukulele orchestra with the addition of Liam Hubbard on washboard who performed a Christmassy version of Vance Joy’s Riptide, rewritten by Oscar Futter as Yuletide! Sadly, the Christmas concert will be the last one for our Year 11 students. Fortunately though, the talent displayed by singers and musicians in lower year groups will ensure that music will continue to go from strength to strength at Neatherd. Many thanks go to all of the teachers and parents who helped organize the concert and especially to our peripatetic teachers, Mandy Slater and Nia Howe for their musical input. Very special thanks go to Tash, Reenie and Lilimae Nicholson for providing an array of homemade cakes for the interval. Huge thanks go too, as usual to the technical crew who ensured that the evening went with very few technical hitches. Mrs Sanderson, Head of The Arts

Friendship Traffic Light Forms - Miss Ford, our House Support Officer, has a system whereby students can seek advice and help, and share examples of good friendships, so the focus is kept positive too. She reports that lots of forms have been given in with some really valuable comments.

Reef's Castle Project

At Neatherd we like to let students show off their learning using as wide a range of skills as possible. Reef in Y7 decided to construct his castle for history homework using Minecraft, the popular video building game. We also have an over-subscribed Minecraft club every day with Ms Waterfield and Mr Gibson every lunchtime.

Bohemian Rhapsody - Neatherd High School and Dereham were host to 5 students from a Business Academy in the Czech Republic recently who came to do one week of international work experience in the town. 2 of the students helped in different departments at our school and the other three were kindly able to spend a week in the Dereham Library, at Grove House Infant School and at “Homeworks” Estate Agents. Thanks to David, Kristyna, Nikola, Tereza and Martina for all your help – you were a pleasure to have around. Marion Broughton School Support Officer

Wellbeing Evening at Neatherd - Tue 6 Dec, 6pm in Canteen. On average, three students in every class will suffer from poor mental health. Most mental health issues will emerge during the years our young people spend at secondary school. At Neatherd, we take a whole school approach to mental health awareness and now we want to extend that to the whole community. Our third annual mental health community event will take place on Tuesday 6th December. It will start at 6pm and will take place in the Canteen. The event this year will be focused on how we can create a kind, safe and healthy environment both in school and at home. To book your place, please contact Mr O’Brien via email (Nick_O’Brien@neatherd.org) or by calling the school. Light refreshments will be served.

Neatherd Xmas Cook-Off 2016 Last night saw the conclusion of the two day special Neatherd Christmas cook off. Two teams from each house competed, cooking a wide selection of festive inspired dishes from around the world. On Tuesday Miss Mullineux and her Kett team – Maisie and Nancy walked away with the dish of the evening. A Dutch inspired Hutspot potato and onion mash complimented with Pepernoten, little spiced biscuits. Last night Mr Mayhew was dealt a raw hand having two of his Y11 boys drop out last minute, presumably to focus on their mock revision. Representing Kett alongside Courteney they managed to create two types of German market inspired biscuits along with an alcohol free (I promise) Gluhmost – orange and cinnamon infused apple juice. All scores from both nights have been added together to have an overall winner, well done to Kett house taking first place having secured victory over both nights. I have included all of those who competed and helped out, so if you see any of them around school please give them a big congratulations. The next bake off event will be in the new year, with a slight change in the application process (more to follow….) A special thanks to Mr Scahill, Dr Faulkner, Miss Mullineux, Jonny, Jack and Elena for judging. If anyone is interested in being a judge please let me know! The night also would have also ground to a halt without the help of Mrs Patterson and Mrs Phillipo in food tech, helping me out in sticky situations. Thanks guys. Mr Anderson, Food for Life Coordinator Kett – 150 House points Cavell – 100 House points Carter – 50 House points Fry – 20 House points Each contestant also receives 50 house points for competing individually.
