News
We send a Weekly News Update to all our parents and carers each Friday, with highlights and news from the week in school.
You can also follow us on Instagram to keep up with recent school events and news – @dorothystringerschool.
Additionally, at the end of each term we publish The Stringer Press, our news publication that celebrates some of the many events, student successes and departmental news that have taken place over the course of the term. Scroll down to view our most recent edition.
Thank you to our Groundforce volunteers and Year 7 Environmental Science students who have been busy in our allotment!
After the Groundforce team’s hard work building new raised beds, our Year 7 students began putting the first potatoes in the ground this week.
Over the next week all 330 Year 7 students will plant potatoes in the allotment, and they will be ready for harvest in July 🥔
Also pictured are the primroses and wood anemones planted by our students which are starting to flower on our woodland floor 🌼
Student volunteers are welcome to come along and help at the allotment on Wednesdays and Fridays after school 🌱

Well done to all our Year 10 students who did a brilliant job of presenting their HPQ presentations yesterday!
The HPQ is designed to stretch our students and enables them to research and produce a project on any subject of their choosing. They have produced some excellent work and we had a great time discussing their projects with them.

Repost @dorothystringerpe: ⚽️ FULL TIME: S Half 3-3 D Half(D Half win it on penalties) ⚽️🏆
A fantastic afternoon of football from the Year 11 Boys this afternoon. A good game which was played in great spirits. S Half 2-0 up at half time but it’s D Half who come back into it in the second half and win it on penalties. Well done to all who took part and a big thanks to Mr Brown for organising 👏 ⚫️🟡⚽️🏆

Tomorrow is International Women’s Day! This week in form time we discussed stereotypes and gendered language with our students, and encouraged them to think about the inspirational women in their lives.
We also took part in the @englandfootball #BiggestEverFootballSession today, opening our 3G pitch to girls only during break and lunch time. Well done to all who took part! ⚽️👏
