P5D are working hard this half term to design and make an iMovie linked to the WAU topic  ‘Energy Sources’. As part of the WAU topic they have been looking at how we can save energy both in school and at home. On a planning board P5 worked in groups to plan what they would record, who would record it and what they would say. Once the planning boards were complete they have started to record in various locations around school. When all recordings are compete they are now able to start creating the iMovie. Here are some photos to show what they have been doing.

Another full week of learning for P3! In Personal Development and Mutul Understanding we thought about safety and the sorts of things that were and weren't safe. It was really lovely to hear that all of the children could think of lots of people they feel safe with. In Numeracy, we continued to investigate number sequences including number bonds in teams. In Literacy, we thought about how we structure our sentences and what punctuation we might need. In Art we recapped our learning from last Friday, about the Russian painter, Wassily Kandinsky. This Friday we continued our own versions of 'Squares with Concentric Circles'. Wow, we did loads and that wasn't even it all!

We thoroughly enjoyed our first Shared Education session this week. With our friends from Presentation, we furthered our study of this term’s World Around Us topic, World War 2. The children learnt about the Belfast Blitz and how it affected the families living in our capital city in 1941. They also made Models of Anderson Shelters and their efforts were fabulous as you can see from the photos. The children really enjoyed working together and renewing their friendships. We look forward to our next lesson when we will be learning more about Evacuation and Evacuees.

We enjoyed role playing at the Three Bears Cottage today. Some of us had fun playing with ‘snow’ in the water tray and we also loved playing in the sand.

On Tuesday 16th January P5D had a visit from the education team at NI Water. They came to talk to the boys and girls about the need to conserve the water we have and try to look after the environment by not wasting water and only putting three things down the toilet. They were given a booklet about the water cycle, a sand timer to try and encourage them to have a 4 minute shower and also a tag they could put on the water stop tap at home.
