I am delighted to welcome you to the Durham Lane website. Our school prospectus and school website are full of useful information about the school, its ethos, organisation and staffing. We hope you find it helpful. My vision is that Durham Lane Primary School is a centre for excellence, serving our children, their families and the community as best we can, making sure they achieve and succeed.
Our school is a special place full of learning, laughter and friendship where everyone is happy, feels safe and is valued. We enjoy the present, but look to the future – and aspire to equip our children with the skills, curiosity and resilience they need to continue learning throughout their lives.
Our children deserve the best from this school. Our duty is to provide it.
We are delighted to announce that we will be offering 30 hour provision. The children will continue with their morning placements, but we are now able to offer some flexibility for afternoon Nursery provision and before and afterschool provision. Mrs. Guest, the Nursery Teacher, will teach both in the mornings and the afternoons.
Dear Parents/Carers,
As we approach the end of another wonderful year at Durham Lane, I would like to thank each and everyone one of your for your continued support. We strive for excellence at Durham Lane and we want to make sure our school is a special place, full of learning, laughter and friendship; where everyone is happy, feels safe and is valued. This year, we have continued to grow and develop in so many ways. I would like to take this opportunity to say again that it has been a real honour and a pleasure being the Head Teacher of such an incredible primary school and I am so very proud of our children: they really are a delight to teach. I would also like to take the time to thank all of our school governors for their continued support and welcome Natalie Smith onto our governing body.
There have been so many highlights of the year: school visits, sporting events, charity fund-raising days, stay and play sessions, staycation, farm trips, jump 360 visits, well-being days, sleep overs, our summer fayre/mud-fest to name but a few. I can honestly say your children have been so grateful for all the additional extras the staff do. Therefore, I would personally like to thank each and every member of the school staff team who go above and beyond to ensure your children get the best opportunities and experiences.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank you for supporting our new outdoor KS1/playground canopy project and I am pleased to announce that the proposed works will be completed during the summer holidays.
This time of year is always a time to celebrate successes, but also a time to say goodbyes. We will sadly be saying goodbye to our Year 6 children who have made us all proud with their commitment to their learning and being such fun-loving pupils. We wish them every success as they continue on their learning journey and move onto their new secondary schools. We are also saying goodbyes to a few pupils who are moving on to places such as Texas, Ingleby Barwick and Italy.
Finally, I really hope you all have a wonderful summer holiday. Enjoy spending lots of time with your wonderful children; I can’t wait to see their beaming, smiling faces back in school on Wednesday 4th September.
Yours Sincerely
Helen Gregory
