It has been so lovely to see just how engaged the children have been since returning to school.

And a big shout out to all the staff for their beautiful classrooms, but Mrs White we think you are the winner! 💐
Thank you Primary 4 for judging 😂
Have you noticed a difference in your child since Have you noticed a difference in your child since the holidays began? 💙

Maybe they’re laughing more, sleeping better, chatting away again... Maybe you’ve got your happy child back.

Of course, the rest, sunshine and slower days all help. But if you’re wondering whether school has been playing a part in how they’ve been feeling, it might be time to explore something different.

At St. Dominic’s Priory, our boys and girls aged 3–16 are known, understood and encouraged to be themselves. That isn’t just something we say—it’s who we are, every single day.

There’s a reason families know us as one of the region’s most nurturing schools. Come and see why at our September Open Day.

Your child deserves to love learning—and to feel like they truly belong. 💙

On Friday, our Primary 6 children received their l On Friday, our Primary 6 children received their leavers’ hoodies at our end-of-year assembly – a lovely milestone as they get ready for their next adventure. 💙

It’s hard to believe they’re about to swap being the oldest in the primary school for being the youngest in the senior school... although it’s only a few steps across the playground!

One of the things we love most about our school is how natural this transition is. Our P6 pupils already spend lots of time in the senior school, are taught by senior staff, and even have their lockers ready and waiting. By September, they’ll already feel right at home.

We’re so proud of every single one of you and everything you’ve achieved. Thank you for the memories, the laughs, and for being such a wonderful year group. We’ll miss seeing you in the primary building, but we know you’re more than ready for what’s next.

Good luck, P6 – we can’t wait to see all that you achieve. 💙✨
What a day our Prep children had for their end of What a day our Prep children had for their end of year trip to the fabulous BeWILDerwood! 🌳Running free, in amongst the trees, climbing, sliding, zip-wiring - you name, we did it! Beaming smiles, so much laughter and plenty of muddy children, 10 out of 10 💙

An absolutely huge thank you to our super kind and generous PFA who paid for the coaches for all of our children across both the Prep and Senior school’s trip. We are incredibly grateful to you all ladies 💙💙💙
🦷✨ Our Prep children had a fantastic visit from Ab 🦷✨ Our Prep children had a fantastic visit from Abbey House Dental Clinic today!

The children took part in lots of fun, hands-on activities, including practising how to brush teeth correctly and learning which foods are good for healthy teeth and which can cause damage. It was a brilliant way to reinforce the importance of good dental hygiene and looking after their smiles every day. 😁

A huge thank you to the friendly team at Abbey House Dental Clinic for such an engaging, informative, and interactive session. The children had a wonderful time and learned so much! 🪥🦷🍎
Primary 6 enjoyed their last-ever Prep Disco in st Primary 6 enjoyed their last-ever Prep Disco in style with a fantastic tropical theme! 🌴🌺☀️ The hall was full of fun, laughter, dancing and plenty of happy memories as everyone celebrated together before moving on to the Seniors. The whole of the Prep had an incredible time, from Pre-School upwards 🕺💃🪩
A huge thank you to our wonderful PFA and our amazing Year 9 DJs for organising such a brilliant event and keeping the party going all evening. It was a super disco and a fantastic way for our Primary 6 pupils to celebrate 💙

💙 Grandparents, tea, cake & a very special welcome 💙 Grandparents, tea, cake & a very special welcome back…

Join us this Friday for our annual Grandparents’ Afternoon, followed by our Welcome Back Tea & Cake — all in aid of a charity very close to so many of our hearts, @macmillancancer. 💙

✨Grandparents’ Afternoon 1:45-3pm
We absolutely LOVE welcoming our wonderful grandparents into school to spend some special time with their precious grandchildren. It’s a chance to see their classroom, take a very special VIP tour of the school and, of course, enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of cake together. ☕️🧁

Then, as our grandparents head home, we’ll be opening our doors to our parents and families for our Welcome Back Tea & Cake in the Priory Hall 3.20-4:45pm.

💙 New to St. Dom’s? Even more reason to come along!
It’s a lovely, relaxed opportunity to meet other parents, catch up with familiar faces and enjoy a delicious slice of cake together.

And every penny raised will go to @macmillancancer. 💙

Can’t make it on the day but would still like to support this wonderful cause? You can donate using the link below or via the link in our bio.

And a huge thank you to everyone baking or donating cakes for our cake sale. 🧁🙏
Please drop your cakes off on Friday with our wonderful PFA, who will be eagerly awaiting you by Mrs Frodsham’s office in Main Reception!

Please remember: all cake donations must be nut-free.
For further details, please see the email sent on Friday.

We can’t wait to welcome you all! 💙

What an achievement, and what a fantastic result after all the hard work, training and dedication that goes into competing at this level.

We’re so proud to see our pupils pursuing the things they love beyond the classroom and achieving brilliant things along the way. 💙 Well done Tia👏

What a beautiful day 👌 sometimes we forget just ho What a beautiful day 👌 sometimes we forget just how fortunate our children are to have the canal literally on our doorstep, such great views from every window! Blue skies, open space, changing seasons and always calm. 
It’s pretty special and we never take it for granted 💙
5 things we take for granted at St Dom’s… 💙 Not b 5 things we take for granted at St Dom’s… 💙

Not because they aren’t important. Quite the opposite.
They’re just so much a part of everyday life here that we barely notice them anymore.

🚪Holding the door for someone.
⚽️Making time for sport.
🫶Trusting each other.
🔎Letting children’s interests shape their learning.
And knowing that teamwork really does make the dream work. 😉

These are the little things that become habits, values and, ultimately, part of who our children are.
Nothing flashy. Nothing complicated.
Just kindness, respect, opportunity, trust and teamwork — every single day.

And perhaps that’s the best thing about them. 💙
