French skipping (or “elastics”) is the latest craze to hit the Pre-Prep playground. The old games never lose their charm!

Pre-Prep's frozen world topic concluded with a fantastic visit to the Antarctic (aka @DurlstonArt Department!). The children were inspired by real life tales from glaciologist Professor Banwell and then crafted their own polar scenes complete with scientists, penguins and seals.

#DurlstonYr2 have been considering whether everything on the Internet is true. They had lots of fun designing their own ‘fake news’. A shark seen swimming through Brockenhurst, a mermaid diving , a fox doing ballet and a unicorn knocking at the door. #SaferInternetDay

Books & Blankets is our new calm, cosy lunchtime club held in the Durlston Library, for children in Years 3–5 and Years 6–8.
