Back in December, we surveyed our parents and guardians on all things 'Hart!'  We asked parents questions regarding their child; their experiences when visiting our school; and what they see the main strengths and areas for development to be in our school.  
This data was analysed in January and February and we are now pleased to provide you with the results.  Alongside the results, we have also included comments to answer any queries etc which were raised.  Please read and consider these carefully.  
As a school, we were absolutely delighted with the results of the survey and the high regard which you have for our school.  
Moving forward, we will be using this data, and many other data sources, to help steer our school for the next 3 years.
May I, on behalf of the whole school community, thank you for your contribution.

Mr A Frizzell

P5D enjoyed a wonderful art workshop at the Armagh Museum that was run by Orlaith Cullinane. The children got to view the AE Russell exhibition and used it as inspiration to learn techniques to create their own 3D pop up artworks on the theme of ‘From the Sea’ using chalk pastels, paper folding and lots of imagination.

The children had a wonderful day celebrating World Book Day. It was amazing to look at all the ‘Book In A Box’ masterpieces that the children made. The time and effort that went into making them was fantastic! We took part in the BBC live lesson and then got the opportunity to complete a variety of different activities in class.
