Christmas 2018

Primary 7 had a great time partying with Primary 6 yesterday afternoon.  Their dance moves were very impressive and the dance off was particularly entertaining!  Lots of fun was had, prizes won and treats enjoyed.  A big thank you to Mrs Reoch for helping us set up and organise the event.

We wish each family a peaceful festive break.

Merry Christmas from Mrs Moran and Mrs Kerr

Christmas Stories

Primary 7 wrote Christmas stories featuring their Primary 1 Buddy having a festive adventure.  We enjoyed visiting their class this morning to share our work. The stories got a big thumbs up from the Primary 1 children and they are taking them home to share them with their family.

  • Toiletries including toilet roll, deodorant, shampoo and liquid soap.
  • Food items including UHT milk, long life juice, small coffee, small sugar, Jam, pasta sauce, cereal, biscuits.
  • Tinned food such as peas, tomatoes, sweetcorn, meat, tuna, custard, fruit, creamed rice.

The Foodbank currently has a large stock of soup, beans and pasta so any of the above items would be a great support in feeding families during the festive period.

P.5 Enterprise Project – Note from P.5

Primary 5 are studying Enterprise in Social Studies and are learning about running a business. We have carried out market research to investigate the best product for sale to maximise profits.

Our research has revealed that sweets are the most popular product. As a result, we will be producing Sweetie Cones. All sweets are gelatine free and suitable for a vegetarian diet.

We have taken out a business loan from Mrs Friel and have to repay this in full. Profits made in this venture will be donated to charity.
