Dear DCIS Parents,

This certainly is the final stretch of the academic year!

I would like to congratulate the Secondary students and our Art and Design Department on a very successful inaugural Art and Design & Technology Exhibition. The level of the work on display was amazing, well done all.

The Arabian Nights cast had a busy weekend with two full days of rehearsals. I am very impressed by the hard work and dedication put in to this by the students. A big thank you to Ms Hooper and the staff involved for all your time. There are still a few tickets left for the two performances, be sure to get yours from the School Reception.

Our Global Campus Expedition Team leave for their Switzerland adventure tonight. We wish them all a fantastic time!
