Dormanstown children are entitled to an excellent education; we ensure our children have the essential knowledge, learning dispositions and key values to embrace the opportunities and challenges they encounter to go out into the world and make a difference to their own lives and that of others. Our school logo ensures our children display learning behaviours underpinned by our core values: ‘aspiration, inspiration, collaboration and celebration’, creating a nurturing environment that enables children to be successful learners. With inspirational pupils who share a love of learning and a passionate staff team, we ensure that our children set aspirational goals, inspire one another, collaborate and celebrate together. Please look at the weekly blog, social media posts and academy gallery to see what it is like to be a pupil at Dormanstown Primary Academy.
Please explore this website to find further information and if you have any questions or require additional information, please contact the academy office.

This afternoon was the first half termly headteacher's afternoon tea party.
A huge well done to this lovely group - The first 6 pupils to receive a headteacher's award. Richly deserved and a pleasure to spend time with!
Can you spot a couple of them raising their little finger as they drink their 'tea'?

Well done kids
Our school farm shop is stocked for this week.
Last week over 100 families visited the farm shop! For those families that have yet to visit, It is 6 items for £2 cash.
One item is a bag of fresh tomatoes, a pack of socks, a bag of nappies, a box of Lurpak individuals or a box of M and S shortbread! We have kept some stock in reserve to allow us to re-stock the shelves over the next few days. Don't forget to look in the freezer as well!

Is this open to the whole dormanstown community or just those with little ones at school? I love the idea and less package waste going to landfill.
What a wonderful idea 💡 👏

Our new school dog, Arlo, is officially certified and ready to start his role at DPA after half term! He is currently having his school bandana made so he feels part of the community. Look out for him on a school gate near you....

THIS is the moment that our very own Head Girl spoke to our King yesterday!
When Miss Eden rang to let me know, I shrieked with excitement! What an amazing opportunity.

Amazing!! 🤩 x
Our new book vending machine has arrived!!
We are re-launching home reading from half term to ensure all children learn the best reading habits and enjoy reading.
Every time your child reads to an adult 3 times per week, they will receive a raffle ticket. The more raffle tickets your child receives in their year group box, the higher the chance of them winning a book.
Each half term two winners will be picked out in every class and they will receive a VERY special GOLD COIN!! That gold coin can be used to purchase a brand new book from our new book reward vending machine!
We are so excited for children to start spending. Which book would you choose?
HAPPY READING :)

I love this term's Year 6 sketchbooks and display! Their artist study has been Andy Warhol and here you can see a mix of lino printing, ink printing and polystyrene printing, creating multiples of the same image. You can see his trademark Pop Art style reflected in their work and the use of contrasting bright colours.
