🌿 Partnership Day with St Joseph’s and Portpatrick! 🌿
What a fantastic partnership day we had with St Joseph’s and Portpatrick Primary 1–4! Miss Scott, Mrs Copeland, Miss Stevenson and Mrs Henry led an exciting day full of creativity, teamwork, and fun.
In the morning, we used our technologies skills to plan and build a bug hotel using sustainable resources, helping to care for our environment and local wildlife. We also created a beautiful poppy wreath from recycled materials to remember and reflect in a meaningful way. ♻️
After a delicious lunch prepared by Mrs McKinstry, we joined Alison for an energetic game of boccia, showing great teamwork and sportsmanship before heading home after a wonderful day together.
Our focus on using natural and recycled materials supported:
