DCET Newsletter Summer 2026

the purpose of ensuring that the arts are as enjoyable and accessible as possible to all. The aka Dance Theatre company led a fun and engaging session, teaching the children expressive, theatrical dance. Rosa Parks Class: There have been many fascinating learning opportunities this term at Rosa Parks. The children had a great time exploring the interactive displays and participating in practical scientific investigations during our fantastic visit to We The Curious. We have also been engaged in our DT topic, using our creativity and problem-solving skills to construct our own cars. We have been experimenting with various designs to measure rolling resistance and distance travelled. In addition, the students had the wonderful chance to take part in a student-led music session from the Wells Cathedral School, where they explored a variety of instruments. Throughout the term and in every subject area, the students have demonstrated a great deal of excitement, interest, and positive attitudes. Excellent work! Malala Class: Malala Class also got to experience practical scientific investigations at We The Curious. One of the highlights of the day was taking part in a captivating light workshop. The children explored how light behaves through a series of engaging experiments and demonstrations, deepening their understanding of this fascinating area of science. We even saw clear beakers disappear! It was a wonderful day filled with curiosity, exploration, and excitement. Malala Class represented the school brilliantly with their enthusiasm, excellent behaviour, and thoughtful questions throughout the visit. Our Year 6 pupils from Malala Class celebrated their Year Six Leavers Mass at Clifton Cathedral with the Bishop and other Year Six Leavers from across the Diocese. They got to have a photo with Bishop Bosco. I think they were the only group to get hi-fives from the Bishop afterwards! Thank you to Anais for doing the second reading at the Cathedral and to Charlotte and Freddie for carrying the banner! Still to look forward to: • Our Year 6 pupils will enjoy after school pizza and water fight against Mr Schwartz! • Year 6 Play • End of Year Mass • Graduation ceremony for our Year 6 pupils
