Primary 2 travelled to Armagh Palace Stables for our ‘Apple Trip’. We learned how apples come from the tree, to the factory, to the shops and to our homes. We saw how apple juice was made in the 1700’s and how to make apple potato bread. We made our own apple core using card, lollypop sticks and string. A super day which was enjoyed by all the children!

Primary Three have been learning about how to be Eco warriors. As part of the topic each child has created their very own eco warriors using waste materials. Hopefully, they will look at their model each day to remind them to look after their planet.

Mr McKittrick visited the Primary 1 children.
They looked at his uniform and learnt how his coat is fluorescent so he can be seen in the dark and that it has reflectors to help the cars see him.
The children went outside to practise how to cross the road safely with his help.
They know to hold an adult’s hand, wait until Mr McKittrick calls them and to walk in front of him.
We remember to always say ‘thank you’ as he helps us to cross the road.
Thanks to Mr McKittrick for coming into school to help the boys and girls with this very important road safety topic.

Dear parent / s
This week, we plan to celebrate Harvest season with an Assembly. You may wish to send your child to school with an item for the Food Bank. However, in these current financial times we know the strain facing every household, so there is no obligation. We also know that many of you already support Food Bank initiatives in store.
Please be advised that our School Cook is preparing a special Harvest Season meal (see attached menu) to be enjoyed on Thursday 06 October.
The meal may be booked as normal via Eduspot.
