DCET Trust Newsletter Summer 2025

Rosa Parks Class Rosa Parks Class have had an amazing time this year! We cooked delicious Bolognese sauce, learning new skills in the kitchen. Year 5 went on an exciting residential trip to Skern Lodge, building teamwork, confidence, and resilience. During careers events, we built impressive towers and worked together brilliantly. In science, we investigated how liquids like Coke and orange juice can rot teeth, tried (and struggled!) to make ice cream, and explored how heating solids turns them into liquids. It’s been a fun, hands-on term full of learning, creativity, and adventure. Well done to everyone for their fantastic enthusiasm and hard work! Malala Class As often the case with a Y5/6 class, the children grow in maturity, overcome challenges and develop into wonderful young people who are ready for the next step in their educational journey. At St Joseph and St Teresa’s, Malala class have enjoyed a wonderful year which has included many key events such as public speaking competitions, sporting events at local secondary schools, arts week however without question, our residential trip to Skern Lodge was a stand-out memory for all children. The pupils put the school’s values into action, showing resilience and curiosity throughout all of the outdoor activities, respect and love to each other and all of the staff at the centre, as well as stewardship and forgiveness when looking after the wellbeing of their friends. It has been a joy to work with this lovely group of children throughout the year.
