Kelly came to school today to collect all money donated by our generous families last week for the annual poppy appeal. A big thank you from Kelly who will send us a total when money is counted.
A special thank you to Elsie who sold handmade poppy items last week and raised £267 !
Thank you to everyone who sent in items for shoeboxes and filled shoeboxes for Operation Christmas Child. Mrs Harper delivered 32 shoeboxes to the OCC Community Relations Coordinator Joanne Gallick, who thanked everyone in our school and nursery for their support. Each shoebox reaches the grateful hands of a child and transforms their lives and those of their wider family.
Thank you everyone ! 😊
Our school choir were delighted to attend Leckpatrick Parish Church to open their Festival of Remembrance. The church is looking fantastic and our choir sang beautifully. Thank you for inviting us along and remember to call in and visit the church this weekend if you are in the area. Have a look at our video and photographs.
Today we welcomed Nursery to assembly for the first time. Well done to everyone and keep up the hard work.

Thank you to Donna from Sustrans for another fantastic lesson today. Mrs Kane's class and Mr Campbell's class took part in another important lesson, learning about being bright and safe during the darker winter nights. The children learnt about the importance of what colours are best when we are travelling in the evening and at night.
Thank you Donna
Pupils from Year 5,6 and 7 took part in a football blitz in Strabane. Pupils from 5 other primary schools also attended, the teams were made up of students from every school. Each team played 4 games. We had lots of fun! Well done to the winners and a big thank you to everyone at Sion Swifts for allowing us to take part in such a fantastic programme.
Everyone looks so well!
