Easter Egg Design & Rolling Competition 🐣 Please boil an egg at home and decorate it with your own design. It can be any theme — not just Easter. You might choose sports, family, television, books, or anything else you enjoy. You can use paints or markers to decorate your egg. Remember to add your name (or initials) and your class so the eggs don’t get mixed up. Bring your decorated egg into school on Tuesday 31st of March. Please wrap your egg carefully when bringing it into school and class teachers will safely store all the eggs until Wednesday 1st of April. On Wednesday 1st of April, we will help judge the winners in each class and also see which eggs roll best! Of course there will be other fun Easter activities along the way, maybe even a little Easter treat! [Open Image]

24th Nov 2022

Today, the children from P4 and P4/5 had the opportunity to visit Seamus Heaney HomePlace. 

The children experienced a fantastic educational visit where they got to experience the ‘Blackberry Picking’ workshop. Throughout the day the boys and girls explored the poem ‘BlackBerry Picking’, had the opportunity to handle blackberries, learn about their life cycle as well as create blackberry ink art. They also had a yummy teddy bears picnic with scones and blackberry jam. 

As well as this, the children got the opportunity to complete the Heaney Exhibition tour were they found out lots of information about a variety of his poems. The class couldn’t believe it when they were able to listen to recordings of Heaney reciting some of his famous poems! 

The children were a complete joy to bring along today. Well done boys and girls - lots of learning and fun had by all 😊
