April brought a new topic of rainbows, fairytales and nursery rhymes!
We experimented with colour mixing to create beautiful rainbows. We really enjoyed reading fairytales, one of our favourites being The Three Little Pigs. As you can see, we were able to retell the story during our play and even made our own houses made of straw, sticks and bricks. We had lots of fun in our garden, sorting, cutting, hammering and planting beans- just like Jack and the Beanstalk! We re-enacted Incy Wincy Spider in the water area and Ten Green Bottles in the sand.
We ended our month with a non-uniform day, dressing up in all the different colours of the rainbow! Have a look through our photographs and see how many different colours you can find!
Great to get down onto the field to practice all the different events that the children will be doing at Sports day next month.
P2 LM enjoyed painting our self portraits to post to Presentation Primary School as part of our shared education.
P5DK are enjoying working through the Barnardo’s activities in class this term. They have played bingo, learning about what life is like for different people, understanding the diversity that exists in families and respect charades.
P7MM’s WAU topic for Term 3 is The Titanic. In Art, we explored the work and life of a local artist, Adrian Margey from Kilrea who has a studio in Portrush.
His paintings are contemporary and traditional depictions of Ireland’s landscapes, iconic landmarks and musical traditions. One of his paintings is entitled ‘Reflecting H&W’ and includes the famous Samson and Goliath cranes.
We painted our interpretations of this painting and the results were amazing!
P3 had great fun during ABL showing off their amazing imaginations and social skills.
P7MM practised the 24 Game in anticipation of the challenge with Miss Shipley😊.
The aim is to be the quickest to make the number 24 by adding,subtracting, dividing or multiplying using all 4 numbers on the card.
Let the battle commence!
It’s great to see the sunshine and dry weather to get on the Adventure Trail☀️
