Everyone at Durlston Horse riding club had such fun grooming and riding the horses today, and it was clear the horses loved all the pampering too! A perfect afternoon filled with smiles, bonding, and unforgettable memories 🐴😀 #DurlstonFamily #DurlstonClubs

Starting the new term with a #durlstonGeography singalong. #DurlstonYr5 think this is a great way to remember the continents and oceans.

🎶 Year 3 singing their way to success! 🌍 Learning the 7 continents of our world and combining music and memory 🎶 #DurlstonGeography #DurlstonMusic #DurlstonYr3

🪨 Year 3 had a blast exploring different types of rock today! From igneous to metamorphic to sedimentary, learning has never been so hands-on! #ScienceRocks #Year3 #PrimaryScience #HandsOnLearning #DurlstonScience

Another lovely afternoon at Burley Villa School of Riding 🐴😀#DurlstonClubs #DurlstonFamily #PonyLife

We understand that children learn best when they feel happy & safe. The Harbour is a new quiet retreat for children to use if they feel they need to take a breather. Favourites so far have been the Yoto, interactive light pod & purring cat! Artsmark. #durlstondifference

🦷🔍 Science Detectives in Year 4! Our #durlstonyr4 children became animal dentists – investigating and matching different types of teeth to the animals they belong to. It was fantastic to see their curiosity, teamwork and scientific thinking in action! #durlstonscience

Our budding #durlstonyr5 scientists have been investigating which materials dissolve in water. They’ve been testing, predicting and observing to see what happens – fantastic hands-on learning! #durlstonscience

Year 3 are loving their form time– fully immersed in a range of exciting activities and showing fantastic focus. Concentration levels: 💯😀#DurlstonYr3

Middle Prep had a fantastic time at the 3 Mobile Discovery E-safety Workshop! They planned and designed their own safety videos showing impressive knowledge, creativity, and teamwork throughout. Thank you 3 Mobile for such informative and fun learning. #DurlstonCreate #3Mobile

Well done boys! ⚽️

#FridayFeeling #durlstonyr5 enjoyed playing a variety of traditional games – laughter, teamwork and friendly competition filled the classroom. A perfect way to round off the week! #durlstondifference
