Durham Cathedral Schools Foundation

It's always exciting when a school chooses something a little different for their uniform! As well as a classic V-neck jumper, Durham Cathedral Schools Foundation offers a navy quarter-zip jumper for a more modern look.

The Friends of DCSF have their Annual General Meeting on Friday Morning, 8.30am, in Meeting Room 1 at Durham School reception. All parents are welcome.

A cracking season opener for our 1st XI! They played a blinder to win the first round of the 100 Cup. They restricted visiting Loretto School to 45 runs which they knocked off for the loss of one wicket.

Fantastic play from our 1st VII netballers at the U19 Durham Area Netball Tournament as they ran out tournament winners!!

A highly competitive tournament saw the cream of the county's teams come head to head to compete for the first trophy of the year.

In the end, it all came down to goal difference and our girls' superior shooting prowess won the day. Well done to all involved!

We are delighted that so many of our DCSF pupils will be a part of the installation of Reverend Canon Dr. Philip Plyming as the new Dean of Durham.

Our singing Choristers will be in the Cathedral choir, while two of our Kings Scholars, Hannah and Timon have the immense honour of carrying the Durham Gospels in the service.

To read more on how the scholars feel about their roles, and a bit more about the installation, check out our new blog post by following the link!
