Welcome back to the New Year at Forgandenny Primary School. We are excited to be part of the Living Communities project again this year and look forward to working with family, friends and members of the extended community to hear memories of life in the past in this area.

Community Skills Exchange
Our Community Skills Exchange was a great success with members of the local community joining the children to teach them how to knit. The children taught the adults how to weave and much fun was had by all. We hope the ladies enjoyed the afternoon and really appreciate everybody who gave up their time to come into the school.
Our Visit to Stanley Mills
Our whole school visit to Stanley Mills was a great success and really got our topic started. All classes had the opportunity to discover for themselves life as a working child in the mill. They were also given time to investigate the exhibits and see some work from other schools in the area. We look forward to working with P&K cultural workers over the next few weeks and may even try some weaving.
