Christmas Wreath and Jesse Tree

The children enjoyed making their Christmas Wreath and Jesse Tree.  They also enjoyed learning about the candles on their wreath and symbols on their Tree and what they represent. (More pics to come)

Library Visit

P1/2 had a fantastic second visit to the Library. Where they got to return their books hear some exciting Christmas stories and choose their new books.

The children were so pleased they were able to go, as the weather forecast wasn’t good enough for the children to be able to walk there. However Mrs Dillon/Mrs Crawford saved the day and was able to order a bus for P1/2 to take them there and back.  Thank you very much.   They had a lovely time.  Thank you also to all our wonderful helpers who helped to make this visit possible.

Christmas Experiences

P 1/2 have  also been enjoying writing about the different experiences they have been having throughout the Christmas season.  In particular they got really excited about writing to  to tell Santa that they are trying hard to be very good and perhaps if he was not too busy he would like to know one or too of the gifts they would like for Christmas.

Thank you to Barbara and Tesco  –                                                                    Developing the Young Workforce and People Who Help Us

The children  also enjoyed writing back to Barbara from Tesco, to thank her for the wonderful experience they had, to help them in their learning about ‘Developing the Young Workforce’ and ‘People who help  Us.’

Below you can see some of the letters and pictures the children sent.

P1/2  Christmas Jumpers and Fundraising

During the season of Advent, Holy Family have been raising funds for charity one of the special days our P1/2 class particularly enjoyed was ‘Christmas Jumper Day’  where many of our children   shared their snack money, or  brought in contributions especially.  Also a big thank you to all who have supported our children and school in this way.  We appreciate it very much.

Christmas Party

P1/2 enjoy their Christmas Party with P1 and P3…
