Today, Primary 5 and Primary 6 took part in a fantastic outdoor activity day at Broadwood Stadium for their Summer trip.  They took part in Tennis, Athletics, Orienteering, Team Building and BMX biking.   The rain didn’t stop them enjoying their day!

Tonight our children shone like stars for this evening’s performance of the ‘Lion King’.  What wonderfully talented pupils we have at St. Michael’s.  We are bursting with pride and we are looking forward for another great night tomorrow!

Only a week to go!

Tickets have been given out this week.  Each child from Primary 4 – 7 has been given three tickets for either Wednesday or Thursday night’s performance.  Extra tickets will be given out on a first come, first served basis from Friday.

Well done to Dylan O’Hara for designing this fantastic illustration for the front cover of the programme!

Life Cycle of a Butterfly

Primary 2 have been learning all about the life cycle of a butterfly. They have been experiencing this first hand  in the classroom watching their caterpillars turn into cocoons, then into a chrysalis, finally turning into beautiful butterflies!

They took the butterflies down to the forest to  release them.

PC Kenny came to the school to talk to the children about the importance of staying safe on the internet, using online games and social media apps.

He showed them some some age appropriate videos from the website https://www.thinkuknow.co.uk, which is a resource which can be used to  highlight the importance of  staying safe online, exploring what’s good, what’s not and what they can do about it if they feel uncomfortable or worried about something that is happening online.
