It's Your Move 


Our super Year 6 students were all presented with a copy of 'It's Your Move' this week, courtesy of Truro Diocese. The book provides the children with advice about transition to secondary school and how to relish the opportunity. 

 


Welcome Bishop Dave 


Bishop David has recently been announced by Downing Street as our next Bishop of Truro.  The diocese are now preparing for his official welcome and they wished for children and young people to play a special part in his welcome service. A display will be made at Truro Cathedral and schools were invited to submit art work which welcomes Bishop David and shows why our school is special. Two of our very talented artists used their collage skills to create a masterpiece to send for the display. It includes our school vision, values and our school parable 'The Parable of the Lost Sheep'.

The service takes place at 
Truro Cathedral on Saturday 17 May.

 

 


Hot Cross Buns 






Class 1 have been looking at Bible stories from Holy Week and Easter. As part of their learning, they made hot cross buns which they learnt was symbolic of the significant day in Christian faith when Jesus was crucified.

 


Class 3 Art 


Class 3 have been exploring the concept of collage, they created a ‘mood board’ of ideas and different techniques. In their final piece they will make a wild west wanted poster, they will combine pattern, tone and shape for effect and justify why they have chosen specific materials and methods.

 


Phonics Superstars 

Our Reception children have been doing so incredibly well with their phonics and handwriting that they were all presented with medals this week. The quality of their learning has been amazing. Keep up the good work Reception!                                    


 


Dance School Games  


A group of children from Year 3 and 4 visited Pensilva Primary School this week to take part in this year's Dance School Games.

The Dance School Games celebrated creativity and imagination with choreography that explored our natural environment and the impact of climate change. The School Games values were brought together to celebrate the spirit of the games in a unique event created by Cornwall’s young dancers. 

 


Forest School Pancake Day 






As last week was Shrove Tuesday, Class 1 and Preschool made pancakes during their Forest School! The children have been learning about Shrove Tuesday and Lent during their RE lessons and they enjoyed incorporating this into their Forest School lesson. 

 


Girls Football Tournament 


On Friday a team of 8 girls from years 5 and 6 travelled to Bodmin Leisure Centre to take part in a girls football tournament. They all played incredibly well winning 4 games out of 7. Well done Team Duloe!

 


Road Safety 


Class 1 have been learning about road safety. In the playground they practised ‘stop, look, listen and think’ with our preschoolers being the traffic – although I think they went faster than cars on the road! 

 


Duloe Speaks  


On Thursday afternoon we hosted our ‘Duloe Speaks’ competition. 3 teams from our debating club presented 3 very different arguments. ‘Music lessons should be free for all’, ‘Pluto’s status should be changed back to a planet’ and ‘Solar is the most renewable energy source in Cornwall’. We invited 3 guest judges, School Governor Penny Geach, Duloe Parish Chairman Phil Hallworth and Cornwall Councillor Jane Pascoe. All the teams presented their arguments incredibly well and it was a tough decision to choose a winner. After a long deliberation by the judges team Eco Warriors won by 1 point.
