Dovedale Primary Sch

The children had a wonderful time this morning as they watched 'The Secret Garden' performed by M&M theatrical productions. A lovely treat for the start of the term, thanks to the Dovedale Association.

The year 3 children had a fantastic day at Thinktank Birmingham. If you're looking for something to do in the holidays, we highly recommend it!

Year three have arrived at Thinktank Birmingham and are ready for a day of exploration!

Today we welcomed the Royal British Legion into school to mark remembrance with the children. They did a brilliant job observing the silence to reflect, and it was lovely to have relatives join us who have served for their country. Well done Dovedale ❤️

The children were very excited to watch how we managed to set up a new classroom on the grounds!

The classroom has landed! We managed to go outside this morning to see the new classroom being 'delivered'!

There's been plenty of music in Dovedale recently, to cheer us up in this miserable weather! Our guitar group put on a wonderful concert for their parents to show off their musical talents! They made us all very proud.

The year threes had a wonderful time at the luminous light performance. Showing off everything they've learned in science this year!

The year threes are having a fantastic time on their trip today. Three levels of science to explore at Thinktank Birmingham!

Year 4’s have had a lovely first afternoon at Mount Cook Adventure Centre and we even saw a hot air ballon tonight...Always aiming high!

We had a great session today in year 4, working with Derbyshire Cricket. And the sun was shining for us!

TG Escapes also donated some special pencils to the year 2s that can be planted after you’ve used them and they grow into a tree. How amazing is that !! Thank you @TGescapes and Mr Chris Lesse.

What a great way to start the British Science week!!! We were very lucky today to have Mr Chris Leese, an engineer by profession (working for TG Escapes), to come and do a STEM workshop with the Year 2s about building a structure to withstand a heavy object. #TGEScapes

A fantastic win for our Y5/6 @Erewash_SSP football tournament yesterday. They beat 5 other schools to progress to the next round. The team represented the school excellently with their football skills and impeccable behaviour.

KS2 bike check today went successfully! Thank you to @Erewash_SSP for completing it with each class 🚴🏻‍♂️🚴🏻‍♀️

We had to have a sheep photo! 🐑 Miss. Cholerton 💜
