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.
Congratulations to all our Teacher Certificate, Mathletics Certificates and Walk to School Week winners. A special word of congratulations to Oscar and Ollie who are now on Epic level in Mathletics and well on their way to becoming legends.
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.
The showers didn’t stop us enjoying our Healthy Kidz lesson outside this morning As you can see from the happy faces, the children had great fun exercising and learning skills in a fun way.
