We were honoured to join the Mayor of Ramsgate and his guests at a Holocaust Memorial Service on Tuesday 27th January. The service marked Holocaust Memorial Day - the international day on 27th January - which marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.

We have been made aware of a cookery competition for young people. It is being organised by the production team behind the Great British Bake Off. We know that we have many talented bakers in our classes, and in the past, we have had students win the Kent Cookery Competition.

Bird Wise East Kent and Thanet Coast Project are looking for budding young photographers to enter their free photography competition!
The East Kent Coast Photography Awards are held every year, and are a celebration of all the wonderful wildlife we have here on the East Kent Coast. There are lots of different categories, but our dedicated Under 18s category is open to a wide range of coastal subjects. It doesn’t matter if it flies, swims, walks, or none of the above: if it can be found on our shores, we want to see it!
So if your students have some brilliant coastal pictures, please do encourage them to enter. Spending a morning or afternoon trying to capture some coastal scenes could also be a great activity! It doesn't matter if they were taken on a smartphone or a camera, it's all about capturing the essence of the East Kent
Coast.
We are excited to announce that the Class Charts Rewards Store will officially open for this academic year on Monday, 26th January.
Our students have been working incredibly hard to demonstrate our school values and accumulate positive points. Starting Monday, students can log in to their Class Charts accounts to browse and "purchase" rewards using the points they’ve earned.

It's easy to be part of Big Garden Birdwatch. Simply choose an hour between 23-25 January 2026 and count the birds you see in your garden, from your balcony, or in your local park. Only count birds that land. Then tell the RSPB what you have seen. Even if you saw nothing, it still counts.
Please use the link beneath to report your sightings.
'What an unforgettable evening we had on Wednesday! The Dane Court community gathered for a sold-out festive spectacular: 'Dane Court at the Movies; a Christmas Extravaganza.'
The first half transported us into a world of cinematic elegance with a more classical focus. From the soaring melodies of the Orchestra and Wind Band to the rambunctious harmonies of the Brass groups and delicate balance of the Junior strings, the standard was truly professional. Our Junior, Senior, and Adult choirs filled the hall with warmth, while the Bucket Drumming group brought a rhythmic energy that had everyone tapping along. A special shout-out to Suzie, who successfully completed her CMM for IB Music by composing for and leading the drummers—an incredible achievement!

It has been a pleasure to see students for Thrive sessions. You have all worked extremely hard. We have completed lots of activities including mindfulness, reflective work, discussing things we want to improve next year, advice you would give to your peers and why you believe rules are important.

We are absolutely thrilled to announce the fantastic success of our very first Christmas Cipher Challenge! Over the last three weeks, students from every corner of the school plunged into a thrilling mission, using their wits and ingenuity to tackle codes designed by our brilliant Cipher Club team. It was a true test of puzzle-solving skills, with students utilizing different cryptographic techniques to break the codes and unearth hidden clues scattered across the school grounds! A huge, enthusiastic THANK YOU to every single student who embraced this challenge.
