When you are proud… you shout it out loud! 👏😊👏
Thank you, to Mr Johnson and Mr Daynes for making the stand   for our Ofsted banner! 
Now you cannot miss how proud we are, as you head into Swanage. 
Thank you, also goes  to our PTA for covering the costs and to Purbeck Media Group for the design and printing of the banner. 👏👏

The rain just about held off for our KS1 Sports Day. Thank you all, for your support and a mad dash to our hall for the presentation. 
We can announce that :
1st place went to INSPIRE
2nd Place went to  LOVE
3rd Place went to TRUST
4th place went to RESPECT

Today, Tag rugby at The Purbeck School was brilliant… the skills played by everyone was exceptional.

We won 6 games and drew 1, giving us 2nd place. 
It was a great way to end this term, followed by a few sporting selfies from staff that organise and enable the children to come to these events. 

Here we have a photo of year 1and 2 class enjoying the treat film afternoon for winning the positive penny competition.

Fantastic Friday part 3…. It’s always been a tradition that Miss Morgan has baked a cake for the year 6 pupils to enjoy after their SAT’s so this year was no different! 
Well done Year 6 and thank you Miss Morgan for being so thoughtful. 🍰❤️

❤️Fantastic Friday part 2❤️
The secret is out… we now have a fantastic outdoor seating area, to enjoy the sun whilst it’s here. 
We do have more to add- plants and parasoles so watch this space! 
We were able to purchase all this for our awarded grant from The Big Bid from Dorset Council. ❤️

Fantastic Friday! Today, we took in a huge delivery of handmade knitted and crocheted blankets from our local Warm Welcome Team. 
Each of these blankets, have not only been made with love, but donated with love to our pupils. 
These have been distributed to each class to use as ‘reading blankets’ to not only encourage reading but to go outside for mindfulness. 
We are so grateful and as you can see our Year 6 children took them outside as soon as they could.

Our PTA would like you to say a huge thank you to Swanage RBL for hosting a quiz night and the Swanage Community for supporting St Mark’s School. 

Today, Miss Canning collected a fantastic amount of £326.00.
👏👏
 Events like this help us (PTA) support St Mark’s with covering trip costs, buying new and exciting equipment to support learning and offer support and financial help in areas where needed. 
❤️Thank you all again! ❤️

Another trip for our families with the National Trust but  to Dancing Ledge this time, where many had commented that they had never been there… so it was a real treat and what amazing weather to show it off!
