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.

On Friday, we had our first table read of our school film with a full cast and key crew members. It was the first time any of us had heard the actors as their characters and it was fantastic to hear! Looking forward to rehearsals, costume fittings, set designing, special effect and stunt prep, equipment tests, and other bits of pre-production over the next few weeks!
