Today Mrs Harper very kindly organised a Halloween Scavenger Hunt outside for the boys and girls in school and nursery. If you found the sweet with the sticker you got an extra treat from Mrs Harper’s office. Well done to all the boys and girls for taking part and thank you to Mrs Harper for the surprises.

Y5/6 enjoyed this quick and effective art lesson today. We drew our squiggly lines for our ghosts with black marker then made up our own faces for them. We then used blue pencil to lightly highlight around the edges of our ghosts to create a 3D look. Don’t they look great !?
Next Wednesday we are having a pumpkin carving competition in school. Each class will carve/decorate their pumpkin and there will be a prize for the winning class. We contacted Fulton’s Pumpkin Patch about our competition and they very kindly donated a pumpkin for each class in our school. Thank you so much Clayton for our pumpkins…we will keep you all updated how the finished creations turn out 🎃

The nursery children have all settled in very well. We have 26 children and each of them have individually adapted to life in their new classroom. Here are a few photos to show you a snippet of what they have been getting up to over the past few weeks.
As our topic this term is ‘What’s the weather?’ We found out all about the water cycle and how rain is formed. We then went on to make our very own rain cloud in a jar. It was great fun. Check out the pictures!
This week we have enjoyed learning about the properties of 2D shapes. We made our own cartoon faces by drawing as many different shapes as we could think of. Check them out!

A few years ago we applied for funding from The Donnelly Group Foundation to enhance our equipment for outdoors. We were nominated to receive the funding at that time but due to Covid19 we were unable to use the funding until this year.
We decided to buy a permanent climbing wall and tunnel that will be available for the children to use every day. This was purchased from Creative Activity in Londonderry and we used the funding to pay for this alongside some nursery funds.
We are absolutely delighted with the product and we know it will enhance the children's physical development and also increase their confidence in climbing on aparatus.
A big thank you to The Donnelly Group Foundation for their funding and also to Gavin at Creative Activity for helping us with our order.
We will enjoy lots of climbing and crawling through the tunnel.
