  Thu 22 Mar 2018 Steven Cumbo

  Well done to our Year 5-6 boys and girls, who came away with the school's first ever team gymnastics medals in yesterday's competition at St Bedes. The children won a gold and bronze medal. Thank you to Miss Clemson, who has been coaching the team for the past few weeks and ensured they performed to the peak of their ability.

  Thu 15 Mar 2018 Steven Cumbo

  A big thank you to Manchester City FC for our tour of the Etihad Stadium. The children in Year 6CM had a wonderful time and learned lots about how a professional football club works. Later at the National Football Museum, they were pictured with FA Premier League trophy before learning about the history of the football fan. 

  

• Miss Monaghan's children go the extra mile

  Thu 08 Mar 2018 Steven Cumbo

  It's great to see children who go the extra mile in their school work, and these children in Miss Monaghan's class literally did just that. In their spare time, they have been busy consolidating their learning by creating this mammoth piece of writing. When it was rolled out, it spanned the WHOLE length of the hall. Now, that is extremely long!

  

• Girls' football tournament at St Bedes

  Thu 08 Mar 2018 Steven Cumbo
  On very cold evening, the Y5/6 girls' team took part in the annual football tournament at St Bedes. LDPS played three games; losing two narrowly and drawing the other match (1-1). More importantly, the girls played with a smile and a great sporting attitude. Our new kit, sponsored by charity, Maddi's Butterflies, attracted admiring glances from the organisers of the tournament and other schools. Well done, girls on a great effort.
