An Update from Primary 7

Now that the new term is well underway, Primary 7 are settling into their new roles and responsibilities as senior pupils. The children have worked hard to ensure they are responsible citizens, setting a good example for the rest of the school and showing maturity in their roles as buddies and monitors.

On Friday the 26th of August, Primary 7 were honoured to attend the Year of Mercy Mass at Carfin Grotto. Furthermore, Primary 7 led the First Thursday Mass – we are extremely proud of the maturity shown by Primary 7 at the Beginning of the Year Mass. Well done to everyone in the class for reading well, playing the music and singing out!

Over the past few weeks, Primary 7 have also been exploring key events which took place during the Second World War. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed exploring replicas of letters, posters, ration books and adverts from the war. The children have shown lots of enthusiasm for their recent IDL homework project: to build a model of an Anderson Shelter using recycled materials! As a class, we are all very excited to see what everyone comes up with!

A very warm welcome back to the new school session. The children are looking fantastic in their new school uniforms and ready for all the interesting and exciting experiences the new term will bring. We welcomed 37 new Primary One children who are continuing to settle to school life. We have been thinking of our previous Primary 7’s and wish them well at secondary school. Classes will blog weekly and you can follow us on Twitter. We are very much looking forward to this new school year and working in partnership with you and your child. Thank you again for your continued support.

Hello from Miss Mc Dermott and P2M

In P2M we have been working very hard in term 4 and would love to share some of our learning experiences with you.

In P.E we have been learning to move an object from a start position to a set target. We have been using bean bags and hula hoops, bowling balls and rubber rings as well as foam balls and cones to use for many different games.

In maths we have been focusing on fractions using halves and quarters. The children have enjoyed many outdoor lessons in active maths this term.
