Dame Janet is a good school for everyone.
Our provision and our focus on personal development and welfare is outstanding. Supportive and skilled staff nurture and develop children to find what they are excellent at - whether it’s in the classroom, on the sports field, or as an artist.

📍A message for Year 6 parents Dear parents and carers One of our previous parents, and volunteer, Lindsay, has kindly organised Year 6 Leavers Hoodies again this year. This is not something that is organised by the school, but something that we are happy for the parents to purchase. Hoodies are then delivered to the school and we will hand them to the children who have had an order placed for them. This year, Year 6 children will be able to wear their leavers hoodie in the final term (hoodies are due to arrive from 10th June). Please make sure that you order the hoodie coloured 'purple'. Only purple hoodies can be worn at school. Orders can be made until the end of May: https://www.leavershoodies.com/dame-janet-primary-academy-leavers-2026 Our thanks go to Lindsay for organising again this year. Kind regards, The Year 6 team

In science O'Keefe class have been exploring human senses. The children explored their sense of touch and experienced a loss of sight whilst completing a variety of different activities. The class had great fun but also gained an appreciation of how hard simple tasks are without one or more of your senses. A great learning experience!

Attenborough Class had a great time on Friday when the class took part in a chromatography experiment to find out what happened when they added water to felt tip pens. The children made some good predictions and enjoyed discussing what happened to the colours and what changes they noticed. They also created some beautiful rainbow fish that they were very proud of. 🥰
