• DASP (Dorchester area schools partnership) Holiday clubs

  Mon 17 Feb 2014
  Mark Duffy
  
  Myself and Adam have been working together over the last few months to organise the "DASP (Dorchester area schools partnership) Holiday clubs". 
  
  The idea of these clubs is to offer children within all of the DASP schools the opportunity to take part in a wide variety of FUN and ENGAGING physical activates during the school holidays. 
  
  In my current role as a Sports Leader / Sports coordinator for DASP I have had the opportunity to work with thousands of children who are currently loving taking part in P.E. and who are always asking to play more games - competitions and activities to help them improve, this is not always a possibility within the school day.
  
  In February Fun Week we are looking to give the children a week of FUN filled activities that the children have been asking me for on a daily bases such as; 
  - Dodge ball
  - Football
  - Basketball
  - Tennis
  - Multi Skills 
  - and more.....
  
  Since advertising the February Fun Week we have been overwhelmed with the positive response it has received and we are happy to answer any questions you may have. 
  
  Please feel free to call me on 07792127283 or email me at markd12312@googlemail.com with any question or queries. 
  
  We look forward to hearing from you

• Trees for Dorset

  Wed 12 Feb 2014
  On Wednesday 12th February the Year 4 children will be planting their trees in the play ground across the road.  It has become tradition that all leavers plant a tree as a lasting memory of their time here at Cerne Abbas School.  All the children will place a wooden leaf label with their name on their tree. 
  
  In the afternoon the Year 2’s will be planting out their seedlings in the quiet area in readiness for when they leave in Year 4.
