Primary 6 Complete Viking Longboat Projects

Details: Category: Primary 6; Published: Friday, 25 October 2019 11:50

Primary 6 Mr Brown's class have been working hard each Friday afternoon with Mrs Park to create a Viking scene using a variety of design techniques. They used oil pastels for their sun or moon; chose analogous paint colours to create their sky (night or day); splatter & bubble wrap effects on their sea and designed and coloured their Viking longboats using felt tips and colouring pencils. They then collaged all their work to create the final Viking longboat scene. Well done Primary 6 - they look great!

Primary 2 children enjoyed taking part in Apple Day. Everyone came to school dressed in the colour of their favourite apple. The day started with the children colouring and making their own apple prints and completing numeracy apple counting. The class enjoyed apple treats for break including pancakes with apple jelly and apple pastries. After break the children had great fun playing apple-themed numeracy games. After lunch, the children had fun ducking for apples using forks and playing apple games outside. Happy National Apple Day everyone!

Primary 5 were recently visited by the Northern Ireland Fire Service. The children were given a brief safety talk by the officers in class and were then taken outside to view the Fire Engine. The children were shown a variety of objects which are needed when the Fire Service are required to visit a fire or accident! The children really enjoyed and benefited greatly from this very worthwhile and educational annual visit. A special thank you was said to the Lurgan Branch of NI Fire Service who were fantastic in relaying their safety message.

Primary 5P Lead Our Harvest Assembly

Details: Category: Primary 5; Published: Sunday, 20 October 2019 22:30

Primary 5 Mrs Peacocke’s class presented a lovely Harvest Assembly to the whole school. They enjoyed performing a play ‘The Rainbow People’, a Harvest poem and a song called ‘Thankfulness’. Mrs Peacocke is very proud of every child in her class and the role that they played in the assembly. They remembered the importance of being thankful to God for all he has provided and also the responsibility we have to share and look after one another. Thank you to everyone for their very kind and generous donations for the Craigavon Foodbank. We were overwhelmed with the amount of food the children brought in and are so pleased that we are able to play our part in helping to provide for others.

Enjoy the photos of the Assembly.

Primary 2 recently travelled to Armagh Palace Stables for the Apple Fest. The children learned how apples come from the tree, to the factory, to the shops and then finally to our homes. They saw how apple juice was made in the 1700's and also how to make potato bread. To end their visit the children made their own 3D apples in the craft room and played lots of fun apple games! A super day was enjoyed by both children and teachers.

Dear parents

As part of our focus on Harvest in school we seek to continue our link with the Craigavon Food Bank Harvest Collection.

Many of you will already be aware of the good work of the Food Bank and perhaps already contribute to this charitable work through your own church however, we still wish to collect food for this charity on Friday 18 October as part of our Primary Five (Mrs Peacocke's) Harvest Assembly.

With this in mind, please consider sending your child into school with a non-perishable food item / s as part of this appeal. A list of recommended items has been included below.
