St Bernard's Primary School

Take Away Theatre Company joined us in St Bernard’s to perform their anti bullying production ‘Hope’.

It told the story of a successful pop star who returned to her hometown for the first time in years and experienced a chance encounter with an old classmate. This brought back painful memories of the abuse and bullying she had suffered at the hands of her classmate.

This was a wonderful performance depicting and strengthening the important anti bullying message that has recently been examined and explored in classes across the school. The children throughly enjoyed the performance and it undoubtedly provoked a range of feelings within them – as you’ll see in the pictures! Primary 4-7 explored this all important topic further, in the follow up workshops provided.

Primary 6 have been working extremely hard this term in art looking at the artist Gustav Klimt. We were intrigued by the ‘Tree Of Life’ and how it represents the circle of life. We looked at how he created the tree branches and the patterns within the trees. Have a look at some of our fantastic work!

We have also been exploring some science experiments in our topic ‘The Demon Dentist’. We looked at everyday drinks and how much sugar content is in each drink. We couldn’t believe the results and how much were in each drink.

We also carried out an eggcelent experiment to see what sugar can do to the enamel on our teeth. It was shell shocking results!

We cannot wait to read the rest of our Demon Dentist topic and find out more about how to keep our teeth healthy!
