Susan Stewart came to our Senior Assembly to present a class set of high-vis vests for the children to use when they are on school outings.  

 

We would like to sincerely thank all from Victor Stewart Enterprises who have kindly donated these vests to the school.

We will certainly be safe and seen when we are out and about! 😊

This year we raised the tremendous amount of £600 for Children in Need and a cheque has been forwarded to the BBC Children in Need Appeal in Belfast.  A big THANK YOU to everyone who contributed to this worthy cause.

 

We would also like to sincerely thank Jim Robinson's Ice Cream for visiting our school and giving each child a free ice cream in support of Children in Need.

Friday 16th November is a non-uniform day to raise money for BBC Children in Need.  Pupils may come to school in their ordinary clothes and a voluntary contribution of 50p per child or £1 per family may be given to the class teacher.

This year we are taking part in the Sustrans programme. The programme encourages children to walk, scoot or cycle to school rather than always travelling by car. Some of our Primary 6 children have been developing their cycling skills with trainers from the Sustrans programme. As you can see they had lots of fun.

The School Book Fair is being held from 6th - 13th November.  Parents are invited to come to the Fair and encourage their child/children to purchase and read a book or books from the display.  On Mon 12th November, school will be open from 6.30 pm to 7.30 pm for families to browse through the books etc.

We are excited to be taking part in Shankill Parish’s Christmas Tree Festival from 6th to 9th December and would encourage you to support this event.

On Friday 26th October we all came to school dressed very brightly to raise awareness of being safe and being seen now that the darker evening are upon us. All the children made a huge effort. We also tried to come to school in a more sustainable way such as walking, scooting or cycling.

 

We also welcomed the Tharpes back to our school again!  Marty and his musical family provide the children with the opportunity to join in with their praise singing and it is a very enjoyable experience for all!
