This was an exciting week, most particularly for our Primary Seven pupils who all left us for their two day visit to High School. They all returned now desperate to be First Year pupils, which is great but also quite sentimental. I am delighted all pupils showed themselves at their best, all made most impressive first impressions. Well done Primary Seven, we are very proud of you.
On Monday evening, Mrs Carr accompanied our Fantastic Netballers to an area competition. They came back with trophy in hand! A wonderful first place, brilliant work from our netball team, both boys and girls. Well done, well played and a huge thanks to Mrs Carr for taking the time to accompany the children (and cheer them on too).
Wednesday was our Annual Nursery Bonanza Day, where our PM children join us for a whole day at nursery. This was a great day; fabulous weather, wonderful activities and great excitement abounded. Big thanks to all nursery staff who worked tirelessly throughout the whole day without a break and to our Primary Seven staff who generously gave of their time to assist whilst their pupils visited High School. A fabulous OLGA team effort. Having this day ensures our PM children have their full entitlement of 600 hours at nursery per year and allows our school community to finish altogether when we have an early finish prior to holidays.
Thursday Mgr. Millar and Canon O’Mahoney came in to school to offer the Sacrament of Reconciliation to our Primary Three boys and girls. Thanks to our ever supportive clergy who greatly enhance the spiritual development of all in our school.
Friday was an exciting day when our final end of year reports were issued and our pupils discovered their new classes and forthcoming teachers.
