P7 News Report
In class out topic is the Republic of Ireland as we are going to do a performance for St. Kents .
Our class went out in to the garden to try out the new trim trail.
In class we are doing a critical essay for St. Kents and it is about a poem called Timothy Winters and we have done a lot of fun things to do with that.
Mr Riley and Mrs Gallagher came up from St. Kents to talk to us about the things to expect at high school and give us our transition jotters to write our essay and topic work in.
We have been on lots of trips this year like the Risk Factory, two ceilidhs, a maths day, school camp and our end of year trip is going to be at Monster Mania.
School camp was very fun and we did activates like pole climb, tree climb , a nature walk and living out doors.

P3/4’s News Report
The News Group met this week and Evan, Rio and Evie from P3/4 reported what they have been doing in class.
Primary 3/4 have been learning how to sketch and colour Romero Britto’s pictures we have also been learning how to do experiments with water. We found out about the DEC saving people in Nepal so please donate to the people in Nepal. Our teacher drew a squiggly line and we had to write our name at the top and colour it in it was really fun. In maths we have been learning how to do tens and units and take away sums. In March we held a bake sale in class we raised a whole lot of money for “SCIAF”. In a couple of weeks the P3’s will be making their reconciliation they are really excited about it.

Trim Trail Pictures
Back to school
Hi everyone, I hope you have all had a great holiday. We have a great term ahead of us and if the weather is anything like today there will be lots of outdoor learning.
Remember I told you about health and safety around our new fire exits? No one is to climb on the new ramps or use the exits until I give the go ahead. I’ve been told it will be a couple of weeks before the hand rails are put in.
looking forward to hearing all of your news on Monday.
Happy Easter Everyone
Wishing everyone a happy Eastertime. Hope you are all enjoying the break from school.
In the ‘old days’ we used to wear an Easter bonnet to Mass and then head out to roll our painted boiled eggs down a steep hill. Does anyone still do that?
