In school this month, we will be talking about the different kinds of bullying, how bullying makes people feel and what you can do to help if you see someone being bullied.
Please talk about bullying at home with your children and have a look on the website below for activities and ideas to try at home.

Links to Rights of the Child Articles 2 and 19
We are delighted to let you know that we have achieved GOLD accreditation for our Rights Respecting School Award.
All staff and children have worked very hard to achieve this but a special thanks has to go out to our RRS committee and supporters who spoke to the accreditors on the day, and represented the school brilliantly!
Well done everyone!
We are very excited to be welcoming our new guinea pigs to the school this week. Our children have been working hard to create the perfect new home for them.
All children will be given the opportunity to come and see the guinea pigs and handling will be introduced very slowly to ensure both the children and guinea pigs feel comfortable and safe.
Please complete the form below to let us know whether you give consent for your child/children to handle the guinea pigs.
We are continuing our campaign to reduce traffic and air pollution around our school and in the community. We would love to see more of our children, walking, cycling and scooting to school.
This is healthier for our children and the environment.
Global Goals
Remember to wear a helmet!
During the next two weeks classes will take part in UNICEF’s Outright campaign. This campaign empowers children and young people to realise their own rights, and speak out in support of the rights of all children. This year, focuses on Article 24 (the right to the best possible healthcare).
Children will access learning activities and presentations in class that will help them understand more about their rights.
Please ask them all about what they are learning!

During Term 4, as part of our Health and Wellbeing curriculum for all stages, the children will be covering outcomes within the Relationships, Sexual Health and Parenthood programme.
It is important that we keep you informed of sensitive topics we are covering and make you aware of what will be taught at Early level (ECC /P1), First level (P2-P4) and Second level (P5-7)
The video below will provide you with all the information about RSHP and what will be covered at each level.
We hope you find this information useful when discussing these topics at home with your child.
If you are unsure of anything or have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact the school.
Thank you
This month our pupils will be learning about Article 3Â Â – All adults doing what is in their best interests.
The children will be involved in activities which will give them the chance to discuss why it’s important for adults to make certain decisions about their lives.
They will discuss why certain decisions in schools are made by adults and what decisions they have a voice in and why.
Are these decisions in their best interest? Are they fair?
What a great afternoon!
Thank you to all parents, carers, grandparents that came along to our Well-being afternoon as part of Children’s Mental Health Week.
It was lovely to see you all having fun with your children. The pictures below are a little snapshot of the day.
Hope to see you all again soon!
