Well done Digby!

School looking rather picturesque this morning. Had a little helper with me who wanted to break the ice for our thirsty ducks. @dumpton

@SteveJMorrissey @BCPCouncil @CastleCourtPrep Steve, thank you for alerting us to this issue. We’ll look into it immediately.

@BCPCouncil This morning I found the most dangerous place to park. Yarrels school, @CastleCourtPrep and @dumpton school minibuses picking up in Penn Hill car park. All the minibuses parked illegally across bays. Kids all over the place. Accident waiting to happen.

Always special to welcome pupils back for a new term, with excitement and enthusiasm about seeing old friends and getting stuck back into school life. It doesn’t mean it’s always easy though. I shared the below pupils and staff - it’s always a quote that really helps me…@dumpton

A short Christmas message from our Headmaster, Christian Saenger.

Thank you so much - our potential sports scholars were really inspired by all you had to say.

@west_moors A pleasure to host you. Your girls played some brilliant football, and were a real credit to your school. We hope to see you again for some sport soon!

⚽️ FT: @dumpton 2-5 @west_moors Our KS2 Girls side enjoyed their first game together, as they continue to prepare for the upcoming East Dorset Tournament! 🏆 ⚽️ Lily P ⚽️ Mia x3 ⚽️ Bella 🤝 Thank you @dumpton for hosting an exciting game and for the post-match refreshments!

Congratulations to 12-year-old @dumpton pupil Fraser Burnet who won the Fundraiser category at the recent @BBCRadioSolent Make a Difference Awards for raising £11,095 swimming the equivalent of English Channel to France & back for Forest Holme 🏊‍♀️#makeadifference #thursdayvibes

In the front hall, our book of condolence for HM Queen Elizabeth II is open for all members of the school community. Every Dumpton pupil will also have the chance to contribute with the support of their teachers. #QueenElizabethIIMemorial #QueenElizabethII @dumpton

So very glad I could join up with the pupils on the Y8 Scotland trip, if only for a short time. They’re all on top form, despite some very changeable weather!

First pics in from Y8’s adventure in Scotland. It really is the most stunning of landscapes. They will learn to conquer both the mountains and the seas this week, and finish by surviving for a night together on a deserted island. A remarkable learning experience for them all.

Very busy on site this week - huge progress made with both tennis/netball courts, nursery garden, and new Reception classroom. Excited to see end results.

A wonderful @dumpton Speech Day today - the first time since 2019, and the first in our new sports hall! It was a fantastic ceremony, thank you to all involved, especially Jo Thomson from @Clayesmore for being our guest of honour.

After a long but very successful week at Dumpton, Friday evening Hobbies was a lovely relaxed occasion. @DumptonHead was caught taking a moment to enjoy a beanbag and these children’s company. #LivingOurValues

Y8’s adventures in Cornwall continue. They visited Porthcurno Telegraph Museum today, and this evening they were in for a real treat at the Minack Theatre - what a stunning location!
