On Friday 24th March, we raised money for Red Nose Day 2017 and Dartmouth Academy Friends (DAF). We asked all pupils to come to school in 'mufti' for a minimum of £1.00 to go towards the Red Nose Day Charity. There were a number of fundraising activities, including a cake sale at break times and after school. Children in the Primary Phase took part in a Bouncathon. We raised a fantastic £1337.36 for Comic Relief and DAF! #news #PrimaryNews

January saw the launch of our new House Point system and for the last 12 weeks, pupils in Mayflower, Beagle and Britannia have been extremely busy earning house points to go towards an end of year treat. After a hard fought battle this term, Britannia have reigned supreme, closely followed by Beagle and then Mayflower. What a treat to be able to see all our pupils up to the age of 16 years, showing their commitment to participation, leadership, and improving their attendance.
