Dunston St Peter's Primary School Autumn 2010

The Summer term has been extremely busy but very exciting. The highlight was definitely the Cluster Choir Concert which took place on 23 June in Lincoln Cathedral. There were 14 local schools involved from our "Villages Cluster". There were around 300 children singing to a huge audience of around 1000 people. It was an enormous pleasure to listen to Dunston's choir, who sang beautifully, and also to all of the children singing together. It felt very special to bring children together from so many schools.

A group of children have been to Siren FM, the University radio station, to make their own radio programme. They used interviews with relatives and neighbours that they had made during a topic on World War Two and turned them into a superb broadcast.

All of the children have showed their excellent fitness during our traditional Sports Day and also during a mini World Cup tournament. We have enjoyed Strictly Come Dunston, our very own ballroom dancing contest, which was won by India and Joshua and also Dunston's Got Talent, which was won by Peggy and Rachael with their superb dance.

We have now said goodbye to our eight Year 6 children at their Leavers' Service. They were full of mixed emotions; looking forward to a new challenge but feeling sad about leaving us! They are a special group to me as they started at Dunston when I did in September 2003 and so they are the first children whom I have seen progress through the whole school!
