The children have been using a range of materials to make spoon puppets this term. They also enjoyed using their puppets in our role play Puppet Theatre to put on a show for their friends.
Congratulations to our P1 children who recently received their Celebration Certificates for their hard work this month. Well done also to our Good To Be Green Raffle Prize Winner who was delighted with his prize.
Our P1 boys and girls were set a technology task to make a toy using junk materials. During talking and listening sessions the children have been discussing the materials they used, how they joined these together and who helped them complete this challenge. What faboulous toys they all are, well done everyone!!
The children had lots of fun engaging in many activites for NSPCC Numbers Day. They enjoyed dressing up and raising lots of money for this very worthy cause. Thank you to all for your support.
We brought our favourite toys into school to help us complete an observational drawing as part of our Art work. We used graphite pencils to draw our toy and coloured it with oil pastels. Have a look at the super drawings by our boys and girls.
Today we enjoyed a fabulous trip to Armagh County Museum to learn about Toys from the Past. The children thoroughly enjoyed finding out about the materials the toys were made from and compared them to modern day toys. They had great fun finding out how each toy worked and were all keen to have a turn playing with them. The children were surprised to learn that in the past children only received a toy twice a year - at Christmas and on their birthday. Each child made a simple peg toy - a doll or aeroplane to take home. A great time was had by all.
Congratulations to our boys who recently received their Celebration Certificates. They have all worked so hard, shown great improvement and produced some fantastic work. Well done also to our Good to Be Green Raffle Prize Winner who was delighted with his prize. Well deserved boys!!
Thanks to all of you who donated to this charity before Christmas. On Friday 17th December we all wore our Christmas jumpers or festive outfits.
We raised a phenomenal £735.40 so many thanks. The cheque was handed over this morning to Rebecca who came into school to represent this very worthy charity.
