As you know, we’ve been learning about Burns night. Yesterday Samantha invited us to watch her make shortbread which is a traditional food from Scotland. Some of the children wanted to taste the shortbread, we only got a photo of the leftovers unfortunately! This was a much tastier option that trying haggis we guessed! Thanks to Samantha for the excellent baking demonstration and for the tasty shortbread. 😊

A huge thank you to all our families who sent in donations in lieu of staff Christmas presents and to the children who donated £1 for Christmas jumper day. We were delighted to hand over £706 to Michelle from Healing Hearts at Foyle Hospice for the invaluable service they provide to children who have a terminally ill parent or dealing with a bereavement.

We’ve been learning how to hop in P.E. It’s been so much fun trying to balance and to land safely bending our knees!

On Wednesday we had a fantastic surprise. Whilst out for break the children could hear the sound of bells in the distance. 🔔  Little did they know it was the big man himself. 🎅🏻 The children had great fun with Santa. He met all of the boys and girls and even had a go on the play equipment. We would like to say a BIG thank you to Santa for calling to see us especially when he is so busy. 

The staff of Artigarvan Primary School and Community Nursery would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a peaceful New Year. 🎄🎄

This term we have been learning about how to write instructions.  We talked about the layout and the different connective words that are best to use.  The children very carefully wrote the instructions for making a chocolate reindeer. As they did such a good job at writing these, we were able to make our own chocolate reindeer today. What a treat for Christmas 🎄🎅
