This week, a group of boys and girls from Year 6 took part in the SLP Indoor Athletics Competition held at the Louisa Centre, Stanley. The children had a great time trying out a range of athletic track and field events and competing against peers from other local primary schools. All our children were fantastic ambassadors for our school, demonstrating a fantastic team spirt and determination throughout. Congratulations to Craig who received an individual award for ‘Respect’ chosen by the event organisers. Well done Team Delves!

The children in Year 2 had a fantastic time completing a carousel of indoor athletics activities. They loved practising throwing balls and javelins, racing over hurdles and seeing how far they could jump! They all put 100% effort into the day and we were very proud of their behaviour and attitude. Well done everyone!

SLP Tag Rugby Festival 2021-22

By

Recently a group of Year 6 children took part in the SLP Tag Rugby Festival at Consett Rugby Club. They had a fantastic time despite the gloomy weather and grew in confidence as the day progressed. They worked brilliantly as a team demonstrating great sportsmanship and determination throughout finishing in 4th place overall out of over 20 teams. They even managed to walk away with their very own free water bottle from Consett Rugby Club. All the children were fantastic ambassadors for our school and should be very proud of all their efforts. Well done Team Delves!

Throughout the last year, our children in Classes 13 and 14 have worked so hard and achieved so much!

We can’t believe they are all off to secondary school in September. They have been excellent role models to our younger children and should feel extremely proud of all they have achieved throughout their time at DLPS. Every one of our Year 6 children are a credit to themselves, their families and our school family and we wish them a happy and successful transition to secondary education.

Remember Year 6, this poem by Caitlin Peterson:
Life is a journey, just so you know.
It’s up to you to decide where to go.
Up a mountain, or down a hill,
people will always go where they will.
Spend your time alone or spend it with others,
as long as you’re happy, that’s all that matters.

Good bye and good luck to all our Year 6 pupils! Please come back and tell us how you are getting on in your new school!
