Last week I indicated I would post some pictures of our Good Work Wall from our Internet Safety Week on our App. My apologies, due to some on-going technical difficulties with our App I was unable to do so. However, here they are now. Some super examples of work all designed to ensure our children remain safe on line whilst making the most of modern technology. Better late than never!
We hope to find a solution to our on-going technical App problems very soon.
A snowy week which provided lots of opportunities for great fun and unique learning experiences.
Mrs Duffy has all her classes outside for her STEM (Science Technology Maths and Engineering) work building snow bridges.
Meanwhile in the nursery they took to the hills for a sledging experience.
On Tuesday of this week our Primary Three pupils and their parents/carers marked the beginning of their intense preparation for the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Grateful thanks to all who came along in such great numbers. I extend our gratitude to Miss Cawley for providing such an informative workshop guiding parents/carers through the workbook and the Sacrament. Thanks also to Fr. McPhail for such an uplifting Enrolment Ceremony. A wonderful way to mark this important step in the faith journey of our Primary 3 pupils. We look forward to celebrating the Sacrament with them on Tuesday 12th March at 6pm in O.L.G.A Cathedral Church. Please remember our offer of help and support is continuous, we are keen to support and encourage all in our families to be involved in the preparation of all Sacraments for our pupils.
Our nursery pupils continues to enjoy a super week, here’s Mrs M M Murphy with all the latest:
The topic of ‘People Who Help Us’ continues with the children learning the role of the Police Force. The children have been busy making Police cars, role-playing with our new costumes and learning some facts about the jobs that the Police do. This will continue next week when we will have a visit from real life Policemen/women. Look out for the photographs next week of all the learning.
On Tuesday the snow arrived and the children got on their warm waterproof clothes to go and have fun outdoors. They made snow Angels, snowballs and sledged down the big hill in the school grounds. On their return to nursery their cheeks had a rosy glow. They all had great fun.
On Friday we celebrated ‘Burns Day’. The children tasted Haggis, Neeps and Tatties, danced to Scottish music, had a go at Welly Wanging outdoors, listened to the story ‘We’re Gangin on a Bear Hunt’ and made Tartan pictures to take home. A great ending to a fab week!
As always, thanks for taking the time to read our Blog, please leave a comment or two.
