DCET Newsletter December 2025

Our Lady of Mount Carmel We have had a very busy autumn term in our school and local community. We welcomed visitors to lead assemblies including the NSPCC, Road Safety and Carymoor who led recycling and sustainability workshops. After a two hour interview Eco council were delighted to be told that we have achieved the Live Simply award after twenty months of hard work demonstrating how we can live simply, sustainably and in solidarity at a school, local and global level. We have been successful in local sporting tournaments in Tag Rugby and Netball. We attended both the Remembrance Sunday parade and the two-minute silence with the community. Our huge 6foot flag was pride of place in church. Each class visited the town library for a love of reading session. Suez recycling gave up a Saturday morning to clear an area which they will return in the spring to plant and sponsor too. Our wonderful PTFA have organised a craft afternoon and a disco. We are very appreciative to everyone for their hard work and generosity in giving up their time. Thirty-four families took part in Wincanton Carnival with our entry “Books in Action”. We won a cup for Spectator’s choice. Chaplaincy Commissioning took place on Monday 10th November at St Luke and St Teresa’s Church. Our preparations are in full swing for the Key Stage One Nativity, Hey Ewe. Key Stage Two will perform at a Music concert. Our school choir are singing Christmas Carols in the local hospital, care home and the Community Centre.
