A HUGE Thank you to all of the fabulous volunteers who came along and supported the school during World of Work Week this week.

This week has been very  full with many many volunteers coming into school and delivering inspirational world of work sessions.  Paramedics and Health professionals, Engineers and Games designers, Charities and Lifeboats.  The children have had a great time. This would not have been possible without the support of the community and the staff who co-ordinated it all.  Thank you.

VE Day Party

Primary 7s from the P7/6 class and P5s from the P6/5 class had a fantastic time planning and enjoying their VE Day party on Thursday.  They decorated the courtyard with flags and bunting, danced in the corridors, ate an authentic style menu, listened to the music of the the time and toasted with lemonade.  The children worked hard and had a fabulous afternoon after all of their collaboration and planning.

The Terrific Titanic Trip

Leave a comment

Primary 5 had a fantastic trip to the Titanic Museum and Experience in Belfast on the 24th April.  After they had studied the information from history about the Titanic they were super excited to see the very place where Titanic was built.  There was great fun had by all.  Everyone came back having enjoyed the ferry crossing and visit and despite the very long day and late night return the children have been enthusiastically talking about the experience in school this morning.

Thank you again to the parent helpers and staff who accompanied the children, without whom trips like this would not be possible.

A fantastic time was had by all!

Dress Down Day Reminder

Leave a comment
On the last Friday of every month (unless advised by school) we have “Dress Down Day” for the pupils and staff. We ask for a donation to participate in this fun activity. The monies raised from Dress Down Day are used to purchase additional resources and treats for the pupils.. The recommended amount is £1 per pupil. We are now a cashless school and unfortunately, we do not accept any cash in the school.  A payment item has been created on ParentPay  called Dress Down Day Donations where you can make your donations direct. You can also request a barcoded letter from the school office and use this to make donations for all Dress Down Days.  
Thank you for your continued support.
