Titanic Showcase Pr. 5 and 6
The boys and girls of Room 13 and 16 presented their Titanic showcase in the gym hall this afternoon in full period costume. They put together a full presentation that gave lots of interesting facts about the building of the Titanic and the disaster. They complimented their presentation with drama, dance and music. Well done boys and girls, you were truly wonderful despite a very dodgy microphone! Room 15 pupils hosted their showcase event in their class and put a lot of pressure on parents to answer their quiz questions. The powerpoints and presentation skills on display were excellent. Fantastic work boys and girls, a real showcase of all the talent here at St.Augustine’s Primary.
Pr.1 Learning Update
The boys and girls of Room 1 were learning all about Fireworks last week and how to remain safe. Here is a slideshow to showcase their learning. We hope everyone enjoyed the firework displays last week.
