Well done to Mia-Louise who won this month’s raffle. She chose a craft box, a great choice.
Today we travelled to the CAFRE Campus at Greenmount to learn more about Nature. We had great fun pond dipping (Taylon came very well prepared with his own net 😃). The children were so excited to find tadpoles with back legs, sticklebacks, blood worms, damsel fly larva and lots of other tiny water creatures. We then went on a mini beast safari in the wildlife garden, finding creatures such as spiders, slugs, wood lice and a rather beautiful snail. The children also made their way through the Beech Maze and found the sundial in the middle, complete with Roman numerals. We all had a brilliant time on our trip. A special word of thanks to the parents who accompanied us.
Both P4 classes had a wonderful sports day. All children tried their best! It was lovely to welcome parents back to our sports day after 3 years. Thank you for coming to support everyone!
Congratulations to all who made a great effort make healthy lifestyle choices and walk all or part of the way to school. A big well done to Christopher and Emily who won our class prizes.
Congratulations to Emily and Bobby, winners of the crown competition.
We all had a fabulous day celebrating Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee.

Ben visited our classroom this morning for a Nuture 5 lesson. He based the activities around our WAU topic for this term, The Romans. We had great fun playing Sword, Shield, March (Roman version of rock, paper, scissors) and learning yoga poses such as colosseum and statue. We also learnt some facial massage techniques. The children were very relaxed by the end of the session as is obvious from the pictures.
We enjoyed a short outing to Portadown library this week. The children learnt all about the library and what it has to offer, including craft classes and a Lego Club!!! We learnt how to locate fiction and non fiction books and were taught how to use the scanners. We had an interesting morning.
