Today Primary 7E took part in very productive workshop run by Mr Egerton, where they learnt how to code using the program 'Scratch'. The children created their own project based around the topics of shape and angles, as part of the school's ICT accreditation. They're certainly 'itchy' to try out some more projects!!
See photos and video below:

The whole school came together to celebrate the real meaning of Christmas in a P7 Assembly. Mrs Sloan and Mrs Erskine had prepared a wonderful Christmas Assembly along with Mr McCambley
Santa came to school with his reindeer and elves to teach the children about the real meaning of Christmas. Many of the Christmas traditions were explained and at the end, Santa stepped aside to make room for the crib and the Baby Jesus to be placed right at the HEART of the scene. A small group closed the assembly with a rendition of ‘In the bleak mid-winter’ and a prayer.

As part of their study of The Victorians the Primary 7's visited The Argory, a National Trust Property near Armagh. Whilst there, the children 'tried their hand' at various Christmas crafts from the era, such as quilling and corn crafts. Each child dressed in Victorian costume too.
Towards the end of the visit we were allowed in to the mansion house where we sang carols on the landing accompanied on the pipe organ. In Victorian times there would have been daily prayers for the whole household staff on the landing so for our children it was like stepping back in time to experience a true Victorian Christmas in The Argory.
This very enjoyable day concludes the detailed study of the Victorian era.

Primary 7 Mrs Sloan have been very busy lighting up the classroom with their own circuits. The pupil built circuits were complete with battery pack, switch, LED light and even included a tin foil conductor. Great fun had by all the electricians.
