P2LM brought their teddy bear’s into school today. We had fun writing all about our teddy bear’s and eating our snack with them.
P4 enjoyed a workshop today about 'Our Community.' The children loved working in groups and designing their own community.
January has been a busy month in P3! As you can see from the images below, P3F have thoroughly embraced the Pirate topic! We have followed compass directions, discovered full, quarter and half turns and even counted pirates treasure! In literacy, we have written facts about famous pirates, designed a wanted poster, composed and performed a sea shanty and had an afternoon speaking like pirates!!! Arrrrrh!
We worked on computers and the iPads during ICT. We discovered our pirate names, designed a pirate and used Chatterpix app to make them talk! We hope you enjoy looking through our photographs.
The children enjoyed using paint and charcoal to create these wonderful winter wonderland pieces of art. Well done, P6!
The children recently travelled to W5 in Belfast to participate in the Fizz Bang Pop Workshop. They enjoyed carrying out scientific experiments with a scientist and exploring the different levels there with their friends. We all had a fantastic day!
We made our Winter trees using scrap pieces of black paper and tearing them to create the trunk, branches and twigs. We also discussed how most trees in Winter do not have any leaves. The boys and girls added snow to their trees by printing with bubble wrap. This part was a little messy but lots of fun.
A team from the school took part in the Credit Union Quiz on Friday night, which is for Primary 7 pupils from primary schools in the Portadown area. There were some tricky questions included over the 10 rounds with the scores remaining very close throughout, but we are delighted to announce we came joint 2nd place! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
A fantastic achievement and very proud parents and teachers cheered loudly when they collected their prizes!
Well done to Zac, Elissa-Rose, Amelia and Marcel. 👏👏👏
Today we travelled to the Palace Stables to learn more about WW2. Many of the children dressed as evacuees and they really looked the part. One even had her teddy in her bag! We met Mr Heaney, the Evacuation Officer, who was very cross with Mrs Stockdale because the children forgot their gas masks!!! After that, Colonel Shepherd, an American GI, taught us how to drill with guns (wooden ones😉) and how to decipher codes. We really had a great day and a really good educational experience.
Congratulations to Elissa-Rose and Elijah on reaching their Accelerated Reader Targets and winning a prize📖
Well done to Darwin, our Healthy Kidz Star🏃♂️
This week we have enjoyed mixing paints to create a sea background. We used forks, spoons and knives to spread and create a wave effect.
The children used many different materials to add effects onto a background. Tissue paper, string for rigging, card and pastel colours.
UICT- we also explored the use of Chatterpix App for adding voice over to characters.
P3 is super fun when learning new skills!
