Noticeboard

Abbey Class have the wonderful opportunity of spending a day exploring Science at Dorchester Middle School on Tuesday.  They will be doing experiments and discovering all sorts of new aspects of science.
 
The children will be travelling by coach at approximately 9.15 am and return in time for close of school.  Please can all children have a packed lunch on this day!

Following the wonderful success of last year, we are asking that the children participate again this year.  The plan is to meet outside the Church at 3.45 pm in order to start singing outside the church at 4 pm.  All children must be accompanied by their parents but Miss Cook will be present to encourage their singing.  The children have been practicing all the songs.  The Christmas lights will be turned on a 4 pm outside the church and there will be over 30 stalls to browse through.

We are asking all the children to participate in a Pyjama day next Friday in exchange for Adult tombola prizes for the Christmas Fashion Show and Bazaar on Wednesday 11th December.

On Thursday Abbey Class will be going on a walk with the ‘Trees for Dorset’ project – they will be identifying trees by their leaves and bark.  The Year 4 children will be planting their trees in memory of their time here.
 
Please can all children have wellies and waterproofs in school and wear trousers please.

4 children from Trendle Class, Silas, Ruth, Millie and Max took part in the Inter Multi Skills Competition at Dorchester Middle School on Tuesday morning. They started off with a pep talk from Mr Dailey and then went and competed in 6 activities, these included how many times could they bounce a ball on a spot, moving 10 objects from hoop to hoop, throwing bean bags into a bucket, rolling a gym ball across the hall, stepping across a ladder and how many times could they fall and get up on a soft mat. We challenged local DASP schools using their skills and determination, finishing 5th out of 7 (only 15 points from 3rd place though!) Finally they played some team games led by the DMS Sports Leaders which was very noisy but hugely entertaining! They did the school and themselves proud and all of them had massive smiles on their faces at the end. A massive thank you to Mrs Horsington who kindly transported the children to and from School.
