Global Dovedale

This is a brand new Dovedale blog designed to keep you up-to-date with all our global news. We will tell you about our global links and we will include photographs, news and information about the countries our school has linked with. Currently, Dovedale has a link with a school in France and a school in Gambia. We often fundraise for the school in Gambia and your continued support is much appreciated by both pupils in this school and the pupils of Grace Baptist School in Gambia.
