Parental Engagement Evening – Innovation and Creativity

Leave a comment

A reminder we are having an open evening in the school on Tuesday 20th January from 6pm to 7pm. We will be showcasing some of the work being done at various stages across the school this session. Our theme is innovation and creativity. This is a drop-in session where you are able to visit the different bases and speak to some of the children about what they have been doing.
From 7pm -7.30pm, we will also have an information session for P7 parent/carers who are going on the residential in March. Information packs will be given out and sent home with children who’s parents/carers are unable to attend.
We look forward to welcoming you all there.

Our P5 staff are considering a visit to the Titanic Experience in Belfast on 9th June 2026. The children would leave the school at 8:45am and return at approximately 11:30pm.  The cost of this trip would be between £88-£90 per person.  At this time we are looking for feedback to find out if parents would be interested in their child attending a trip to the Titanic Experience.  Please complete the form by following the link below and submit it to the school no later than Friday 16th January at 3:00pm.

Final Day of Term

Leave a comment

It has been a very busy term and we are all looking forward to the holidays.  This week has been one of the busiest with seven parties, a house treat, a nativity at the church service all rounded off by a dress down/pjs day watching the pantomime.  We would like to thank everyone who has contributed to making this a fantastic term.

School closes at 2:30 tomorrow and reopens on Monday 5th January at 9a.m. when we look forward to seeing everyone back, well rested and ready for a fabulous new year!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year when it comes!
