Congratulations to the Senior Choir who won the Portadown Spinning Company Shield at the Portadown Music Festival on Tuesday

P6S had an amazing day on Monday as Phoebe was the envy of authors worldwide when none other than Children's Laureate, PJLynch, illustrated her story at The Seamus Heaney HomePlace. Read by Dave Rudden, 'The Scaredy Prince & The Daring Princess' had us in stitches!

School finishes today for the Easter holidays.  Back again on Monday 16th April.  Have a safe and happy Easter break!!

Tickets for the summer competition will be going home in early May and everyone is asked to support this annual event sponsored by McCabery’s Bicycles and local businesses. The competition draw will be made at our Fun Night on 7th June.

Well done to Phoebe Reid in P6S who has had her creative writing selected out of hundreds as a winner of the ‘Head Over Heels’ project. The Children's Writing Fellow of Northern Ireland Myra Zepf has invited Phoebe and P6S to watch her story be illustrated and told by authors and illustrators at a special event this April.

Boys Hockey – NI Qualifiers

On Wednesday 7th March, The Boys Hockey Team travelled to Killicomaine J.H.S to compete in the Northern Ireland Qualifiers. In our first match we played Drumgor P.S. and came away with a convincing 2-0 win, with both goals being scored by Harry Kerr! Our second match was against a very strong Armstrong P.S side. Our boys played very well and came away with a respectable 0-0 draw. Our final match was against Millington P.S. The boys knew that they had to win by 3 goals or more to make it to the Northern Ireland Finals. The team played fantastically well and won the game 1-0, with Harry Kerr again scoring our goal. Unfortunately, this meant that we didn’t make the NI Finals on goal difference. Special mention must go to Lewis Robinson who was outstanding in nets and didn’t concede a goal throughout the whole tournament.
