Well done to pupils in Primary Four who celebrated their First Holy Eucharist last Saturday. Their singing was fantastic and they all looked wonderful. A special thank you to Mrs Neilly and Miss Jones for preparing the children so well. Also a big thank you to all teaching staff who came along to share in the Masses. Primary Four will also have a celebration this Sunday as the Parent Council have invited them to their party after 12:00 Mass.
Primary Six had a taste of Spain this week. They attended a Spanish day in St. Aidan’s High School where they learned Spanish songs and researched the culture of this country. They day concluded with a Spanish Mass in St. Ignatius’ Church where they processed with their symbols of St. Aidan. Well done Primary Six we heard great reports from the high school staff.
Everyone in our school participated in another ‘Big Dance’ today. Huge thanks to Mrs Donnelly who has given up so many of her lunchtimes to prepare the children for this event. Great fun for everyone.
We had also had a wonderful morning with Primary One’s assembly. They took us behind the scenes with Walt Disney, and they amazed us with all of their dancing and lines learned with no prompts! Well done Primary One.
Primary Seven had another visit from St. Aidan’s High School this week as part of their ongoing transition. Mrs Mullen from the English Department spent Monday morning with them and commented on how impressed she was with their language work.
Miss Jones and Miss Lewis have been very busy this week finalising our school sports day on 29th May. We have taken a very different approach this year and all classes have been out this week practising their events. Great fun ahead for everyone. Parents, of course, will be welcome to come along, watch and cheer us on! Miss Lewis will be sending out a letter detailing the arrangement. Please look out for this in your child’s bag.
Primary Six and Seven pupils will be attending a World of Work day on Thursday 21st May. I would like to thank all of our parents/family members who have agreed to come into the school and talk about their ‘day job’. We will let you know how it goes!
