Our new topic this term is Bears and we were able to write down some facts we already knew on our KWL grid. We then discussed what new information we would like to know bears. The first two bears we looked at closely were the Panda and the Polar bear. We wrote about the Panda bear and displayed our work in the corridor for everyone to see.
We can’t wait to learn more facts about the other six species of bears. Have a look at our work so far, we are so proud of it!

Controlled schools in Northern Ireland are all governed in the same way; this is done through a Board of Governors. As a school, we recently reconstituted our Board of Governors.
Following our reconstitution, our new Chairperson is Mrs Heather Mallagh-Cassells and our Vice-Chairperson is Rev Darrin Thompson.
Our governor for Safeguarding and Child Protection is Mrs Clare Proctor.

This week we have done lots of practical Maths!
We explored symmetry using a range of resources - can you tell which side we mirrored? We also used IZAK9 to investigate number sequences, even and odd numbers and we have to work as a team to find totals and problem solve.
We are brilliant mathematicians!

A group of children in P5D had great fun during Numeracy today using mini boxes of Smarties to calculate fractions. After all the hard work, the reward was to enjoy eating the Smarties 😋

We had a really interesting and fun time today when we travelled to the Palace Stables in Armagh to learn more about WW2. Some of us dressed up as Evacuee children and really looked the part. We met Mr Heany, the Evacuee Officer and Colonel Shepherd from the American army. As you can see from the pictures, we had a great day.

We were delighted to have our friends from Presentation PS visit us for our first Shared Education session last week. Our lesson was based on our WAU topic for this term which is WW2. We learnt about the Belfast Blitz and joined together to make models of Anderson Shelters from shoe boxes. Learning together was great fun as you can see from the pictures.
