Dorford Baptist Puppet Show

On Friday 27th April 2012, the pupils at the Prince of Wales First School, Dorchester were treated to a special puppet show from members of Dorford Baptist Church. The puppets re-told a story first told by Jesus commonly known as 'The Prodigal Son'. To finish our assembly the puppets joined us in singing, 'If you're happy and you know it' - they were really good at the actions. See below for a short clip:

Settings Change

Our blog settings have been changed to improve the use of blogs throughout the school. You can now add a comment to a blog post without being required to sign in. Why not have a go at this now by clicking this blog title and navigating and clicking on the text which says, 'comments'. Comments are an excellent way we can have positive feedback on the work we are all doing in school and you are all doing through home learning. Mr. Spracklen

Mr. Spracklen’s Digital Leaders

A big THANK YOU to all pupils who applied to become one of Mr. Spracklen’s Digital Leaders! There was a huge response and it was very difficult to pick just one child from each class. I have have now decided who will represent each class and have written to each pupil offering them positions as Digital Leaders and inviting them to our first meeting. May I thank everyone again who applied and encourage those pupils that were not successful this time to apply again in the future and attend one of our I.C.T lunchtime clubs which currently include Augmented Reality Club on a Monday lunchtime with me, Mr. Spracklen and Maths I.C.T Club on a Friday lunchtime with Miss. Johnson.

Sports Relief

I am thrilled to be able to tell you that we have sent off a donation of £1456 to Sports Relief. This is a fantastic effort by everyone. Well done to everyone who took part in this sponsored event. I am sure that this money will be used well to make a real difference to children's lives.

Tarpaulins Needed

Do you have a spare tarpaulin that you could let Year 2 borrow? We will be using them for a large art based project we have planned in the coming weeks. Any large tarpaulin in any colour would be very gratefully received. We promise to look after your tarpaulin and return it to you when we have finished our project. Please pass your named tarpaulin to Mr. Spracklen or Mrs. Webb in Year. 2 if you have one who will take good care of it. Many thanks in advance.
