Huge Congratulations to all Year 3 and 4 pupils who participated in the FUTSAL tournament! Through brilliant teamwork and sportspersonship, they defeated every local school to become area champions.
Well done! 
A flavour of the fun we have had in December!
We absolutely loved our Rocksteady gig! A huge well done to all the children who took part: you performed so confidently, enthusiastically and with such joy! Thank you to all the parents who joined us to celebrate their learning.
Bridport Primary School’s choir made local history this week as they became the first ever school choir to perform at one of Weldmar Hospice care’s annual Light Up a Life services. Singing to an audience of around 200 people, the children delivered a moving and beautifully polished performance that left families, staff, and organisers full of admiration.
The choir performed four carefully chosen songs — Fix You, Somewhere Only We Know, Lean On Me, and A Million Dreams — each one adding to the reflective and uplifting atmosphere of the event. Their voices carried across the gathering with confidence, warmth, and remarkable musicality for such a young ensemble.
The choir did the school proud. Not only did they sing with heart, but their behaviour throughout the evening was described as impeccable, showing maturity beyond their years at what is a deeply meaningful community occasion.
Weldmar representatives expressed their gratitude and delight at welcoming the choir, noting that their contribution brought a special new dimension to the service.
For Bridport Primary School, it was a memorable milestone — and one that has clearly resonated with everyone who attended.
Our football team have done it again!
Our year four and five classes thoroughly enjoyed their Egyptian experience. Thanks to Neil Heasman for delivering our workshops, to the staff and children for making it such a memorable few days, and to the parents for joining us.
Well done to our new group of sports ambassadors – they completed their training this week and are ready to take on their duties. They participated fully, and confidently presented in front of the other schools as well.
On Saturday, these brilliant young people (and their parents) came to Bridport Leisure Centre for the annual tag rugby tournament. Some of them hadn't really played together before: we were glad to have a team to take... and what a team they were! They showed great sporting attitudes, and narrowly missed out on a semi-finals spot. Well done to all of them!
What a week for our cross-country runners!
The team took part in the Colmers Hill running event last Saturday - Niamh, Gracie, Ella P, Skylar, Luke, Vernon, Jonathan and Solly. Everyone did an amazing job navigating the course (and dodging the sheep along the way!). The girls’ team scored a total of 57 points and the boys’ team came second overall with 46 points, narrowly missing out on first place by just one point! A super effort all round - well done, team!
BPS School Council and Junior LSC visited The Book Shop, Bridport today and chose some new books for the school. Bridlit organisers gave us a generous donation, added to a significant discount from the shop. Thank you so much! #bridlit
Year 6 went to Colfox this week and participated in a team-building session with the other local schools.
These are the team members who worked well with everyone, showing care and consideration, listening to others and being all-round good team-players.
We are so proud of our BPS choir, who opened the Allington Arts Weekend last Thursday. They sang at St Swithun's Church, representing the school beautifully and enthusiastically! Well done children and thank you to all the parents and carers for supporting us at this event.
