The roads around school are very busy at home times and there are lost of things which can distract drivers. It is vitally important that pupils do not add to this.
Please look at the following poster and discuss it with your child.
Remember, stop, look and listen!
On Wednesday 5th June, all children in P4 to P7 classes who took part in Shared Education this year with Presentation PS had a wonderful time at Portadown Peoples Park. They spent the day taking part in a variety of different sports that was run by the staff from Healthy Kidz. Here are some photos to show what they did while at the park.
On Wednesday 1st May, Hart Memorial PS and Presentation PS showcased the work they have completed throughout the academic year in Shared Education through an event held in the Millennium Court in Portadown. Parents, children, governors and Principals from both schools came to this wonderful event. A lovely sense of community was felt throughout the day.
Displays of the work children have completed this academic year from P1 to P7 were on show. Hart Memorial PS and Presentation PS have been taking part in Shared Education lessons for over 25 years and bonds are as strong as ever between the two schools. This could clearly be seen from the work and photographs that were on display for everyone to see.
Both schools would like to thank the following for their help and support last year and this year -
- Bethany and her amazing team from Oasis Youth came to school and hosted a workshop and from this lots of children from both schools enjoy going to the afterschool clubs they offer.
- Healthy Kidz staff are always on hand to help the children celebrate all the work that has been completed during Shared Education lessons. They host a fun day at the Peoples Park for P4 to P7 children and a fun morning for the P1 to P3 children; during the month of June.
- Currently the P6 children from Hart Memorial PS and Presentation PS, are taking part in a basketball project run by PeacePlayers. Alex made contact with school at the start of the year and has organised 4 weeks of basketball workshops. The boys and girls are having a great time learning lots of new skills.
- The Millennium Court in Portadown allowed the schools to use their amazing building to host the event. A huge thank you from both schools for allowing this.
- Also, a big thanks to Tesco in Portadown for the tea, coffee, milk and biscuits that were supplied by them and used during the event.

After Easter, Drama club will continue as normal; however, only pupils who have attended Drama Club up until now can attend as parts have been given for performances.
We had a visit from Sentinus today and enjoyed learning all about the pH scale and finding out about acids, alkalis and indicators. We tested a variety of substances with indicator solution to discover whether the substance was acidic, neutral or alkaline. The children enjoyed watching for colour changes and creating bubbling reactions. We also tested for starch content in a variety of food samples.
