We were delighted to welcome a group of Lurgan College students on placement with us this week. It was wonderful to see some of our past pupils return to school and they were a real credit to their school. Their enthusiasm, professionalism and willingness to get involved in classroom life were greatly appreciated by staff and pupils alike. We thoroughly enjoyed having them in our classrooms and wish them every success in the future.

Primary Seven had a fantastic afternoon of hands-on learning as part of our World Around Us topic. We created our own volcanoes and watched them erupt, helping us to explore how volcanoes are formed and what happens when they erupt.

Even the rain couldn’t stop us! We had lots of fun getting outside and bringing our learning to life.

Our Primary 6 pupils enjoyed a hands-on STEM challenge, designing and building their own Viking Longboats using tinfoil.  They had to estimate how many marbles their boats could hold before sinking, before testing their predictions!  The activity encouraged creativity, problem-solving and teamwork while exploring the concepts of floating, sinking and buoyancy.  There were plenty of exciting discoveries along the way!  Click 'read more' to see the rest of the photos...

The Primary 6 children were able to create and design their very own city!  Group discussions and planning took place to ensure they had the perfect city.  They made their ideas come to life using chalk and all the students were able to tell the other groups what they had created.  What a fantastic afternoon that proved the vast imagination of our Primary 6 students!  Click 'read more' to see the rest of the photos...

Our Primary 7 pupils enjoyed a fantastic morning of learning, teamwork and creativity when they took part in a STEM workshop led by representatives from Hyster-Yale.  We were delighted to welcome Mr Johnny Seifert, a parent in our school, along with Mr Graham Cowan and former pupil Mr Stephen Hilary, who delivered an engaging presentation and hands-on workshop for our Primary 7 pupils.  The children thoroughly enjoyed learning about their roles at Hyster-Yale and gained a fascinating insight into the engineering and manufacturing sector.  The session helped pupils understand how the STEM skills they develop in school can be used in the workplace and can open the door to a wide range of rewarding future careers.
 
Following the presentation, pupils took part in a hands-on LEGO engineering workshop.  Working in teams, they followed instructions to build a LEGO forklift, just as workers would on a production line. To add to the challenge, some groups had missing parts and had to complete a request form to order replacements, giving them a real insight into the processes used at Hyster-Yale.
 
A huge thank you to our visitors for delivering such an engaging and memorable experience.  The children thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and gained a valuable insight into the world of engineering and manufacturing.
