Holywood Hullabaloo

Big Thursday is back on the timetable at Holywood and it is one of our favourite days of the week.

On a Big Thursday our four teachers each teach one curricular area to all the pupils in school.

This term Miss Stapleton is teaching Computer Science – this is new on the Big Thursday subject list. Think of the coding and digital literacy skills pupils will have by the end of the year!

Miss Brockie- Donald is teaching P.E. this term and has gymnastics plans for everyone!

Mrs Jardine is teaching Art and Design – one of her favourite subjects.

Miss McIntyre is heading out for Outdoor Skills sessions  – pupils will be using their senses and their knot tying skills this term.

Next term Art switches for Music and Outdoor skills switch to STEM lessons – exciting times.

Pupils need to wear their old clothes and bring their P.E. kit with them.

Have fun learning on Big Thursday Team Holywood!

Last week our new Keder Greenhouse was constructed in the playground.

This incredible structure is going to be the home of STEM learning at Holywood. We have big plans for our big greenhouse.

Everyone in P5-7 was thrilled by the arrival of their SPELLING WORKOUT jotters.

Miss Dale and Miss McIntyre have organised the spelling to get pupils more swiftly this session.

Pupils have a terms words in their books and can get them learned as soon as they can.

They will be quizzed on a Friday.

Miss Dale has put a letter in the front of the jotter to explain the method to parents.

WORK OUT Daily to get your spelling in shape!

On Lelands summer holiday he went to Burger King he would go again because the food there was very very good.

Sadly, his car broke down and it took a long time to get to where he needed to go !

He went to Mirage that is a hotel- it was nice there. He got breakfast there when he was going to see his aunt.

It sounds like he had a fab summer holiday.
