P7T are learning about China and the influence that Robert Hart made. Today, we drew and designed our own Chinese Ming Dynesty Vases. We looked at the many designs and colours, looked at the difference between a real one and a fake one. Pupils enjoyed creating their own and colouring them. They really stood out with the card behind. Well done, P7. 😀
In P5P, we have been using Minecraft Education. It is a unique computer game, but it’s also a superb learning tool, helping the children with enhancing their creativity, problem solving, working together and imagination. It’s also great fun!

The children have been learning about our Winter Season this term and during our Winter walk we noticed that the trees had no leaves. We could clearly see the different parts of the tree - trunk, branches and twigs. During Art we each painted a Winter Tree and enjoyed adding some 'glittery' snowflakes.
The children loved working in teams to explore solving some single digit problems. They were using digit order, adding digit by language and solving problems by working together and sharing the best solutions.
Great skills developed 👏👏👏⭐️⭐️⭐️
All the children enjoyed sharing their creative side by making models from junk, some children made ships with treasure, some made swords with shiny blades and some loved looking through their telescopes for pirates trying to attack their ships!!
A great way to recycle rubbish as well....... look at our results
We recently travelled to the museum in Armagh to take part in an art workshop led by Orla, a local artist, who taught us a simple way to draw animals. The children thoroughly enjoyed this and their work was amazing!
During the first week of term, P4S enjoyed a visit from Young Enterprise’s representative Nicola. The theme of the session was Our Community and the children really enjoyed learning about what constitutes a community and how communities are funded. They were most surprised when they discovered that they had to give lots of their hard earned wages to the government to pay for certain services such as health, education and policing. They decided what they’d like in an ideal community and designed these. This was a very interesting and educational session for all.
