POST PRIMARY ENROLMENT FOR SEPTEMBER 2023
The on-line application process will be open between 12 noon on Wednesday 1 February and 4.00pm on Thursday 23 February 2023. Please note this is not on a first come first served basis and Post-Primary schools will only begin to make decisions on which children will be selected for admission after the closing date for applications has passed.
We have received the following from the Education Authority:
ADVICE ON THE POST-PRIMARY TRANSFER PROCESS FOR PARENTS OF CHILDREN IN P6
As has been the practice over the last number of years the Department of Education has produced a document providing advice to parents of children in P6 on the post-primary transfer process. The purpose of this document is to ensure that parents receive timely information about the range of issues they need to take into account when making important decisions about the next stage in their child’s education.
Previously a hard copy would have been provided for parents in January of their child’s P6 year however this year the document will be available in electronic form only.
The document is available to download from the Department’s website at the following link:
In Primary 7 we have been awarding ambassador badges to children who always set an example to their peers. It is a very difficult task for the teachers to choose someone each month as we are very fortunate to have many boys and girls who could be awarded this prize. They reflect all the characteristics we want to see in our Primary 7 children: wearing full school uniform each day, using good manners, trying their best in all activities, completing homework, being helpful, kind and sharing with others, excellent behaviour and honesty. We are very proud of them and we look forward to awarding more badges in the coming months. The picture below shows the ambassadors we currently have. Well done everyone!!
Boys
A great tournament for the Kings Park Boys’ Hockey Team at the second Ulster Hockey Blitz on Monday 23rd January. The team had a fantastic tournament and remained undefeated, winning all four of our matches! With special mention going to Joe Dowds, who ended up as the team’s top goal scorer! In their four matches the boys scored 8 goals and only conceded one! An excellent effort by everyone!
Girls
Well done to the girls' Hockey Team who played in the Ulster Hockey Blitz on 24th January.
The girls played well and enjoyed a fun day out with everyone getting lots of practice on the pitch!
