Scripture Union enjoyed an afternoon of Pancake making on Tuesday. We talked about how there are many ingredients needed for pancakes but they are no good on their own. They need put together to make pancakes.

We learned 1 Corinthians 12:12 “There is one body, but it has many parts. But all its many parts make up one body. It is the same with Christ.”

We finished the afternoon with a tossing pancakes race!

P4 Forest School 3 (with Stranmillis PGCE Students) - Aerial View

Details: Category: Forest Schools; Published: Tuesday, 25 February 2020 13:43

P4G had a special Forest School lesson today as they displayed what we do to a group of Stranmillis PGCE Students accompanied by Mrs McClelland. As P4 have been looking at maps in both their 'Life in the Recent Past' and 'Polar Region' topics, it got us talking about birds eye and aerial views. The children, after completing a perimeter walk of the school last week, had to design an aerial view of the school grounds using only the materials around them.

Each group had a chance to talk about what they made and were questioned by their classmates, encouraging using cross curricular skills and many of the thinking skills and personal capabilities as outlined in the NI Curriculum.

The children also spoke with the visiting students and were great ambassadors for Waringstown Primary School. We're very proud of how well they listened and behaved.

Dear parents

This year Opus Digital Photography (Roy Clements) is offering photographs to:

P1, P3 & P5.

The idea is to offer the individual and family photograph every other year. However, if your child is in P2, P4 or P6 you can still use the form to opt for a photograph to be taken: we know some parents like the option of an annual photograph! P7 may wish to be included in a family photo too!

Family photos are taken early from 8.30am

Photographs will take place on:

Tuesday 25 February

Please note this date and plan accordingly.

Foundation Stage had a very exciting day with the lovely Sarah Rowland from the Sentinus Team. She educated us on the importance and fun to be had through STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics).

The workshop was based around the story of the Three Little Pigs with each class from Primary One and Primary Two each enjoying their own individual slot.

During each session the children got the opportunity to explore the various materials used to build the three little pigs homes with every child being given time to explore each of the stations.
