Dorchester St. Birinus Primary School – February News

All our children continue to work hard and shine their lights! We have enjoyed a variety of exciting experiences across this term including a visit from ‘Wheelpower’ a charity supporting wheelchair sports, an Open the Book assembly and a children’s disco.

Our Year 1 and 2 children enjoyed inviting their grandparents into school to share toys that they used to play with during their grandparents day. What a great experience for all involved!

We would like to say a huge thank you to our volunteer helpers who come in to hear children read. If you have time to spare or a skill to share, please do get in touch if you would like to come into school as a volunteer. We always need people to support with hearing children read.

As you will be aware, we are fundraising for new library books. Our PTA have organised an adult quiz night in school on Friday 24th March from 7pm. We would love to welcome our community in to take part. Teams can be from 1-6 people. Tickets cost £10 each. There will be a bar and you are welcome to bring your own snacks.

We would like to say a huge thank you to anyone who has already bought books for our school from our Amazon wish list. We are enjoying using the books to help us increase our knowledge and understanding of the world. We really appreciate your kindness. If you would like to buy a book for school our wish list can be found at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/3EAI7Q6N5EB2E?ref_=wl_share

We run a breakfast club and an after-school club in addition to extra- curricular clubs such as a stories club, a science club, board games and gym. We have places available and if you would like to see what we could offer your child please give us a call to arrange a tour.
