Today we made beautiful Winter tree pictures. We started by looking at the different parts of a tree. The children enjoyed tearing strips of paper of varying thicknesses to the correct size for making a trunk, branches and twigs. We then used bubble wrap covered in white paint to give a snow effect.

We had Mrs Lee as a guest in our assembly this morning, She talked about a new programme we will be focusing on in school, called TREK.
The T stands for Trust and she reminded us of the importance of trust in all our relationships and in school life.

We had a visit from the PSNI to talk to us all about keeping safe. They talked with us about 'Stranger Danger' and that they are there to help us. They also told us about the importance of wearing a helmet when on our bikes/ scooters. We had great fun sitting in the police car and watching the flashing lights and listening to the siren.

We met with our friends from Presentation to enjoy another Shared Education lesson. We played ‘Friends’ Bingo’. This was a really fun way of finding out much more about each other. We also learned lots more about Evacuation during WW2 and how this affected children and their families. We ‘packed’ our suitcases and made Evacuee figures, adding speech bubbles so they could tell us how they felt leaving their families, not knowing when or if they would see them again. We had a super day and look forward to seeing our friends again at our fun day in June.

Wow, we did it again.... P3WA have achieved Mathlete of the month for the 3rd time this year!

This is a huge achievement and I am so proud of each boy and girl for taking part so often.

Please keep up this great effort and participation for another month!  Every day doing Mathletics just 10 minutes really helps learning styles and factual information about all types of Numeracy skills.

On Monday we were able to enjoy a visit to the toy museum in Armagh.  This gave us an interesting insight into the difference between old toys and new toys.  We were able to play with all of the old toys on offer and even make some of our own. 

Today we had Mrs Shields in for a visit to show us all of the old toys she had at home.  The children really loved hearing about all of the different toys and comparing them to the ones we have now.
