House System

Congratulations to St Andrew’s! The won house of the week last week.

The whole school took part in the house day. It was a tremendous success! The pupils took part in a number of activities, including name the mascot, design a house scarf, create a motto, house assembly and wide game. Each house took part in the wide game and St Margaret’s were winners. It was wonderful to see the older children working and helping the younger ones.

Well done one and all!

Maher Project

Sr Lucy Kurien, a Catholic nun who founded and runs the Maher Project in India for disadvantaged women and children, visited our school on September 9th to tell us about all the work that she does. Sr Lucy collected a cheque for £1000 which we raised by bringing a donation, on our school Feast Day, to dress in our own clothes!  A huge thank you to everyone for such a marvellous response. 

Sports Day

Thanks to everyone who made this years Sports Day a great success. The weather was kind to us and the children thoroughly enjoyed taking part in all the races. It was new to Primary 1 but they rose to the occasion and participated with enthusiasm. From Primary 2-7 all races went like clock work and the children were competitive but showed good sportsmanship!

What A Great Day!

Matthew Carney Football Tournament

A great day was had by all at the recent Matthew Carney Football Tournament. Fourteen schools took part making this our busiest event to date. Although competative, the children thoroughly enjoyed the day and there was a great atmosphere. A big thanks to all the coaches and dads who made this a super day.  A special thanks to Mr Paul MacConnell for organising the event. Congratulations also to Ciaran McAndrew, P7, for being awarded the Matthew Carney Trophy for Sportmanship. Well done Ciaran!
