In Hart Haven we have been making new friends, helping each other, working together and enjoying lots of activities. We have especially loved our weekly Theraplay and Six Bricks sessions and have had fun getting ready for Christmas. Have a look at our photos to see all we have been up too.

From January, the cost of school meals is increasing.  The Education Authority have set the increase to try and combat their shortfall in funding.  
The new costs will be as follows:

Nursery - £3.00 per day - £15 per week
Primary - £3.10 per day - £15.50 per week

School Money should be updated to reflect these increases.

🎭 Hart Memorial Primary School Presents: “The Opposites” 🎭
Today, Friday 12th December, our amazing staff took to the stage for a hilarious Christmas pantomime full of surprises, magic, and festive fun!

From strict rules to total chaos, from neat freaks to party animals – the staffroom has never looked like this before! Mischievous elves turned everything upside down, even Santa got involved (and almost cancelled Christmas 😱).

Thankfully, with a little help from our Chief Elf and the children, the magic was reversed and Christmas was saved! 🎅✨

A huge thank you to all our talented staff for bringing so much laughter and joy to the school today. 💫

📸 Check out the highlights below and let us know your favorite moment in the comments! 👇

Today we went carol singing with our friends from Presentation. We headed to Lidl in Portadown first where lots of our families and friends came to watch us. They were very impressed with our performance. After that we went to the Mahon Road Care Home where the residents and staff really enjoyed our singing.

Some members of the Eco Committee have been repotting cuttings and pot bound house plants. These plants were then distributed to members of the Eco Committee to take home.  Spider plants improve air quality and increase humidity so are great to have in the house.
