• Mr Grant Visits our Outdoor Science Classroom

  Many thanks to Mr. Grant, Chairperson of our Board of Governors, for the very king donation of the following equipment towards the development of our weather station: rain gauge; Kestrel wind speed measure; temperature gauge; air pressure gauge and a rock and Mineral set.

   

  As a keen geographer Mr. Grant was most impressed with the outdoor space and told the children he looked forward to watching the space grow and develop over the coming months.

   

  Thanks again Mr. Grant for the very kind donation!

• Alphabetix with Activity NI

  Fri 07 May 2021

  As part of our emotional health and wellbeing programme for this year we have approached Activity NI to deliver training for staff and children in their wonderful Alphabetix programme.

   

  Each letter of the alphabet is connected to a fitness move that can be completed in class as part of a movement break or at the start of a PE lesson.

   

  No equipment is used and in order to create a good work out all you have to do is pick a word and spell it out using the moves demonstrated.

   

  We hope this will be an enjoyable and beneficial programme for all in our school.
