Year 6 Relaxed Revision Morning
Is it even revision if you do it outside in the sunshine?
 
Year 6 are now in full revision mode preparing themselves for SATs in just over a weeks time and why not take full advantage of our new outdoor learning area at the same time.
Netball Tournament Update

Netball Tournament Update
Last night, girls who attend Netball Club on a Thursday evening after school took part in a Netball Tournament held at our very own DJS.
 
Our girls were split into 2 teams, who then played games against each other as well as against the other two competing schools, Burton Agnes and Hutton Cranswick.
 
Some good netball (after only two training sessions) was played, with the girls enjoying their experience.  This was the first time some of the girls had represented the school in any form of sport.
 
Well done to all the girls and many thanks to Mrs Travers for timekeeping and the other parents/grandparents for their support.
 
Pictured are our netballers who played on the evening.
