All classes have been busy creating Internet Safety Posters to promote Internet safety around the school. Here are some of our fabulous winners 😃🙌🏻💚💛 Look out for some of their posters around the school.
World Down Syndrome Day is celebrated each year on 21st March. The theme this year is 'With Us, Not For Us'.
Believe it or not, socks help us to get people talking on World Down Syndrome Day so this year we are asking you to wear as many mismatched, crazy, colourful socks as possible on Tuesday 21st March 2023.
This week is British Science Week!
Each class has been researching a selection of fascinating Irish inventors.
Some classes decorated T-shirts and designed fantastic posters filled with fun facts to celebrate their inventor.
Other classes carried out exciting experiments and became scientists themselves!
Well done everyone!
We recently celebrated the NSPCC Number Day. We dressed up with numbers and had fun practising our maths skills, whilst raising money for a fantastic cause. Thank you for all your donations. We also celebrated the 100th Day at school. We based all our learning around the number 100 and made a human 100 in the front playground. We are now all 100 days smarter!
💻💚💛🖥 The theme this year for Internet Safety Day is "Want to talk about it?" Our digital leaders led the way with an extremely interactive Assembly. The children have learnt the importance of talking about what they do online and ways they can keep safe while online. They are also busy using Apps such as PicCollage, Pages and Adobe Express to create posters to promote Internet Safety Around the School. Well done Everyone 💻💚💛🖥.
💚💛 We are delighted to have been shortlisted for the prestigious Capita School of Excellence ICT award. The judges were most impressed with the conversations on ICT they had with all the children in the school including the Digital Leaders. We look forward to the finals in March 💚💛
Nach muid atá sona sásta go bhfuil muid ar an gearrliosta don gradam clúite Capita Schools of Excellence ICT. Chuaigh an comhrá a bhí ag na moltóirí leis na páistí scoile faoi TFC i bhfeidhm go mór orthu, go háirithe leis na Ceannairí Digiteacha. Beidh na torthaí amuigh i mí Mhárta.
💚💛🖥🖥 We are delighted to have successfully completed Phase 1 of our Empower Partnership with the Nerve Centre. This is our second year in partnership with Nerve. Our first year focused on Digital Film & Animation and was a great success. This year we are focussing on Computational Thinking and Coding. Keep an eye out for more creative activities from our children. 💛💚🖥🖥

Inniu, chuaigh daltaí Rang 7 go Caisleán Uidhlín le bualadh le Bunscoil Bheanna Boirche, Bunscoil an Iúir agus Gaelscoil na mbeann le páirt a ghlacadh I dtráth na gceist. Bhí deis acu bualadh leis na páistí agus a gcuid scileanna Gaeilge agus sóisialta a fhobairt.💚 Bhí lá iontach acu, tháinig siad sa chéad áit agus bhuaigh siad an corn!🏆
Tá súil againn go mbeidh an deis acu bualadh leo arís le haghaidh tuilleadh gníomhaíochtaí spraíúla🥰
Today, Rang 7 pupils went to Castlewellan along with 3 other primary schools for a quiz day. They had the opportunity to meet the children and expand their Irish and social skils. They had an amazing day, they came first and won the trophy!
We hope to meet up with them again for more fun activities!
This week we had a special assembly from Eureka Seekers.
Chris demonstrated how chemical reactions can occur to create gases, colour changes and eruptions of soap!
The children had a blast predicting what would happen and observing the different experiments.
Our pupils were out spreading Christmas cheer in the community again today as P6SS and Rang 7 visited Mount View to sing carols and dance.
Experiences like these are invaluable to our community and we are very proud to be part of something so special.
Thank you to Mount View for having us today.
Congratulations to all the participants in our recent KS2 TT Rockstars Battle of the Bands Competition.
It was an intense competition with P6CM coming out on top.
P7AV came second and P6SS finished in 3rd position.
The top achievers in each class were recognised and presented with certificates for their efforts.
More than 250,000 times tables questions were answered during this tournament- a testament to our very hardworking KS2 pupils.
Today we held our Advent Assembly - an opportunity for all classes in the school to come together and celebrate our faith.
We listened to readings and reflections and sang carols and hymns - a beautiful way to prepare for Christmas as a school community.
