• Cricket Memorial Festival

  Thu 26 Nov 2015

• Basketball Festival

  Wed 25 Nov 2015

  We arrived for our Basketball Festival at St Osmunds Middle School where we met our Year 8 sport leaders, who warmed us up before we had a pre-festival talk given by Mr Treble and Mr Sawyer. Then we made our way to our first game against a strong St Mary’s Catholic team and played really well however lost 3-1 with Ruth scoring. After our rest period we played Manor park and this was a close game ending up as a draw 2-2 with Darcy and Clayton scoring for Cerne. Damers were our next opponents and this was a cracker of a game, end to end and the best we had played so far with the game at 5-4 we looked like we could maybe get a draw but Damers scored a couple late on making the final score 7-4, Max, Darcy and Jack with 2 scored ours. Our last game was against our federated school Winterbourne Valley which always gives an extra spice to the match, it looked like it was going to end up as a 2-2 until Ruth scored her second and the desicive basket to win the game 3-2, with Jack scoring the other! We then had the certificate ceremony and thanked the Year 8 leaders for their excellent coaching and refereeing!

   

  WE HAD COME THIRD!

   

  Our children showed us once again how they worked together as a team, co-operatively, communicated well with each other and how confident they were to show everyone the skills they had learnt in PE. Mrs Price and Miss Nottley were so proud of them once again!! Huge thanks to Mrs Moore and Mr and Mrs Horsington for coming to support our children.

• Tag Rugby Festival

  Wed 04 Nov 2015

  Our Tag Rugby Team arrived at Dorchester Rugby Club with loads of enthusiasm, many never having played in a festival before. We were all welcomed by Mr Treble together and were set off to have a go at the individual activities which included mini games, a tag game, a dodging sprint and their best one the tackle bag run, this is where they had to run at the tackle bag and smash into it with their shoulder and landing on it, this they all enjoyed and all the adults including us wanted to have a go!
  
  Then the games started, we played some lovely Rugby scoring many tries, both Clayton and Owen shared these between them. here are the results:

  Cerne Abbas 3 v 1 Winterbourne Valley

  Cerne Abbas 2 v 2 Manor Park

  Cerne Abbas 2 v 3 St Mary's Charminster

  Cerne Abbas 2 v 1 St Mayr's Catholic

  Cerne Abbas 0 v 2 Damers

  As you can see all games were pretty close!

  
  We then joined the other schools in thanking the Year 4 Sports leaders who were fantastic and Mr Treble as always.
  
  Lastly we would like to thank all the parents who came to watch, again your support is always hugely appreciated and lastly Mrs Price and Miss Nottley would like to say how proud we were of the children, once again they showed us how confident, communicative and conscientious they all were throughout the afternoon!

• ‘Safety Week’

  Mon 19 Oct 2015

  On Monday we will be having an ‘E Safety’ Day as part of our ‘Safety Week’.  Each class will have an e-safety workshop led by the Dorset Safer Schools and Communities team.  The aim is to teach every child the importance of being safe online.  Following a cancellation we are able to offer parents the opportunity at short notice to attend a workshop at 3.30 pm on Monday after school to educate parents on e-safety.

   

  On Tuesday we will be having a visit from Streetwise and having a visit from a fire engine,  they will be talking to the children about fire safety.

   

  During the remainder of the week, the children will be learning about safety in school, crossing roads and first aid.

• Apple Day on Wednesday

  Wed 07 Oct 2015

  We are very fortunate to have Martin Audsley Storyteller in school on Wednesday for an Apple Day Workshop.  Each class will spend some of the day enjoying the apple activities and all come together at the end of the day for an Autumn Gathering.

   

  The plan is to go out for part of the day so please can you ensure that your child has a raincoat.  We also need ‘found’ apples to help us with our learning on that day.  If you have any spare apples lying around please do bring them in.
