We enjoyed writing our letters to Santa and were very excited when the Postman visited us in Nursery with a special delivery all the way from the North Pole!
We had a wonderful day, visiting Santa in his cottage and enjoying lots of fun activities.
We have been making friends with Year 1 children from Presentation P.S. and taking part in fun numeracy activities during our shared lessons.
The children have had lots of fun engaging in activities during playtime.
Stephen and Aaron from Portadown Fire Station spoke to both P5 Classes on the importance of Fire Safety in the home in the run up to Christmas. They were very impressed with the children’s listening skills and also the wide range of questions that the children asked. Hopefully, what the children heard and learned today will stand them in good stead if they ever are faced with a Fire in their home.
We had a great day at Spruce Meadows on our Nursery Christmas trip. We had fun doing some Christmas crafts, bouncing in the disco bouncy castle, learning about and holding the various reptiles before enjoying a train ride to visit Santa in his cottage and stopping off to sit up in his sleigh and see the animals on the way back. After such a busy day there were a lot of sleepy children on the way home.... always the sign of a brilliant action packed day!
Thank you to Mr Verner the postman who came to visit Nursery. Not only did we find out about his busy job as a postman but he delivered a very special letter from Santa.
Primary 7 learned this afternoon about dealing and recognising with our emotions. Whether we get scared, angry or anxious there are certain techniques who can employed to calm ourselves to reach a more stable state of mind. We tried out some calming exercises to help maintain a healthy manner. We also brainstormed some of our calming techniques and completed some emotion wheels which can be used to show our state of mind to the teacher in a non verbal manner. A lovely afternoon learning!
