Happy New Year!

Just a quick reminder that Wednesday, Thursday and Friday (September 1st, 2nd, 3rd) are staff training days and that the children start back on Monday 6th September at 8.55am.

 
Duke Street Healthy Bodies Project 2010
biglotteryfund.jpgFollowing a recent successful bid for £10,000 funding from the Big Lottery Fund (Awards for All England), Duke Street Primary school will use the funding to improve their existing outdoor areas. During the summer break they will be installing trim trail equipment, developing an allotment area and a sensory garden. This will enable the school to offer a range of new outdoor activities designed to improve the health and wellbeing of pupils at the school. This adds to the newly installed trim trail equipment provided by the School Parent Association.
 

Headteacher's Welcome

"The safety and happiness of everyone at Duke Street is paramount.  Safe and contented children can, and will, make great progress in all areas.  We know that every child is different, with different strengths, interests, abilities, personalities, life-experiences and needs. 

We want to work in partnership with parents to build on from where the children are when they first arrive in school. Our aim is to develop these safe and happy children as motivated, respectful and increasingly independent learners; young people of whom we can all be immensely proud."

Mr A Kidd
