    Well done to our Year 3-4 Quad Kids Athletics team who represented Blackburn with Darwen at the Lancashire School Games in Blackpool. Although, our team didn’t win the competition, their commitment and behaviour at Stanley Park was superb. They were great ambassadors for the school and the town.

  • Year 3-4 football team crowned champions.

    Tue 26 Jun 2018 Steven Cumbo
    Well done to our Year 3-4 football team who were crowned champions of Blackburn in a tournament at Feniscowles Recreation Ground. They breezed through the group stages without conceding a goal to set up a local derby semi-final with St James Lower Darwen. They came from behind to win the game 3-1. Only St Peters in the final stood between them and glory. However, the game ended scoreless and was decided on penalties. In a tense finale LDPS won the shoot-out 2-1 to cap a fantastic afternoon. Well done, boys!

  • Year 6 girls' dance competition in Preston

    Fri 25 May 2018 Steven Cumbo

    Last night (Thursday 24th May 2018), a group of year 6 girls took part in a prestigious dance competition at the Guild Hall in Preston. Our team choreographed their own dance routine and performed it to a packed audience in the Charter Theatre. The children represented the school with distinction and they told me that it was an enjoyable experience. I would also like to thank Mrs Omar and Mrs Taylor who accompanied the children to the event.

  • One World Day

    Tue 22 May 2018 Mr Steven Cumbo

    On Monday (21ststMay 2018), to celebrate World Day for Cultural Diversity, we held ‘One World Day’ in school. This whole school event involved each class choosing a country learning about the country’s culture, traditions, food, religion and music. Children came to school in fancy dress. We had some brilliant costumes with pupils dressed; in the country’s national dress, as famous icons, animals from their chosen country or wearing the colours of the country's flag. There was also  a ‘World Museum’ in the library that children visited.  This included interesting souvenirs and photos from around the world.
