Thank you.
The boys and girls have enjoyed learning about ‘Our World’ in their WAU lessons this half term. Today they got the opportunity to learn by working in groups to play games and build jigsaws. Lots of learning and fun had by all.
We were delighted to have Laurence, from Hope Community Church, leading our assembly today.
He sang us a song he wrote himself about Jesus, the Sovereign King.
He spoke about the message and significance of Palm Sunday and the amazing events of Easter.
This data was analysed in January and February and we are now pleased to provide you with the results. Alongside the results, we have also included comments to answer any queries etc which were raised. Please read and consider these carefully.
As a school, we were absolutely delighted with the results of the survey and the high regard which you have for our school.
Moving forward, we will be using this data, and many other data sources, to help steer our school for the next 3 years.
May I, on behalf of the whole school community, thank you for your contribution.
Mr A Frizzell
P5D celebrated World Maths Day today as they were away on a trip last Friday. They had a very busy day starting with Mathletics and Times Tables Rock Stars. Then it was into the school hall to complete lots of physical Numeracy activities. The day was finished by working in pairs to work through Numeracy challenges.
A super busy and exciting morning in P5D today as we had Orlagh in class working with the children on the ‘Our City’ project. Orlagh discussed with the children the differences between a village, town and city. They got to see how a city operates, jobs that are needed and businesses that are open.
P5D enjoyed a wonderful art workshop at the Armagh Museum that was run by Orlaith Cullinane. The children got to view the AE Russell exhibition and used it as inspiration to learn techniques to create their own 3D pop up artworks on the theme of ‘From the Sea’ using chalk pastels, paper folding and lots of imagination.
P5D enjoyed toasting, decorating and eating pancakes today. In Literacy they looked at instructions and wrote out how to make pancakes. During Numeracy it was time to calculate how much the toppings would cost for each pancake they wanted to make. Finally, in WAU they researched how countries around the world celebrate Pancake Day.
We were delighted to have Laurence from Hope Community Church again today, to lead our assembly. He spoke about: Contentment, Respect, Gratitude and Kindness.
Some of the P7 Digital leaders also spoke to us as part of our Safer Internet Day work that has been happening all week.
They talked about online scams, how to spot them and what to do.
This half term P5D have been learning about lighthouses and during technology they have used their knowledge of circuits to design and make lighthouses.
P5D have been learning the names and properties of 3D shapes in Numeracy this week. They completed a variety of different activities in class to help with their knowledge and understanding.
