8W Drama
Last Friday 8W’s two week drama project culminated in an evening performance entitled ‘Strong Women’ to coincide with International Women’s Day.

Huge thanks to all our parents and staff who helped by donating clothing, toys and textiles for Dulwich Wood Primary School’s ‘Happy School Bag Fundraising Scheme’. This not only helps schools raise funds, but also helps the environment by diverting discarded, but reusable, textiles away from landfill and recycling them instead. The school is paid by the kilo for…

This week saw the start of Pre-Prep Running Club. The young, enthusiastic athletes set off during their lunch break to Mary Datchelor playing fields.
