Stickman Visits P1!

Wow! What an exciting week in P1! We have had a visit from Stickman who left us his book to read and letters with secret missions to complete! We are hoping Stickman will stay next week and ask us to complete more secret missions for him!

We have also been learning:

the ‘g’ sound,
words ‘go, get, got’,
all about shadows in science
all about road safety with Super Cat and using the Super Cat Rap- Stop! Look! Listen! Think!

We have been so busy this week being Super Kittens and Detectives!

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Confirmation Meeting.

A reminder, that there is an information meeting in the Church tonight at 7.00pm for those children receiving the Sacrament of Confirmation, this session.

Purposeful Play today in P2/1

The boys and girls in P2/1 enjoyed some purposeful play at the end of the day today.

Our young artists decided that our usually camouflaged Arctic animals needed some colour!

Our young mathematicans had fun with analogue and digital clocks.

Great to see young engineering minds at work building lego houses.

A whole kingdom is being built here. Great teamwork boys!

The library corner provided a quiet place to enjoy a book.

These young researchers were finding information about the fastest cars in the world.

Finally, a few budding engineers used their imagination and created a car, a castle and an aeroplane, complete with spinning propeller.

Awesome afternoon P2/1!

P2/1 Learning through play

Lots of great learning opportunities during purposeful play this afternoon.

Our two builders were working together and using their imagination to build tall towers.

Our three researchers were gathering information on the fastest and most expensive cars in the world.

Our mathematican/engineer was using the skills he’d learned in Maths to build a structure with symmetry.

Our artists were getting creative and making hearts with kind messages for Anti-Bullying week.

Great collaboration here from another wee group of artists.

A HUGE thank you for your food donations!
