Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Friday 8th April will see our P6/P7 class host their ‘Showcase Day’ as part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme (JEP) that they have been partaking in since the beginning of the academic year.
The ‘Showcase Day’ will afford all the children in the school (and parents/carers at pick up time), an opportunity to purchase a Be Happy Band. These bracelets have been handcrafted by the boys and girls and they have turned out brilliantly!
They will be on sale for £1.50 each with a special deal of £2.50 for two. #Dream #Believe #Fearless #Cool
Our thriving pre-school afternoon club, Young at Heart, was all go this week as they made the most of the beautiful Spring weather.
It was fun in the sun as they created Mother’s Day crafts that included flower pots and butterfly cards. The children also planted sunflowers and have been learning about the tallest and shortest.
The boys and girls would like to wish all their mums a very happy Mother’s Day!
We as a school are indebted to our fundraising arm, POSH (Parents of Sacred Heart), for all the work that they do in relation to generating funds for us.
Recently, through grant applications submitted by POSH, we have acquired some brilliant new resources for our pupils.
We are now one of the very few educational establishments in the area to possess a state of the art 3D printer. This device will be accessible to the whole school and will certainly bring about new and exciting opportunities.
We are also in receipt of a set of new up to date IPad’s that feature the very latest in Apple technology. Aligned to this we have been able to update our construction and engineering resources with a full array of K’Nex kits.
The whole school community place on record their thanks to POSH for all of their work. It is valued and appreciated by everyone!
This week’s Principal Award winner was Jasmin from P6. Jasmin is consistently polite and well mannered to all members of staff. She is a fantastic friend to all in her class and always ensures that no one is left out. Jasmin’s presentation and work is continually presented to the highest standard and it is clear that she takes great pride in this. Jasmin works hard in every lesson and will always give 100% whether that be within Numeracy or PE.
The boys and girls of P3 celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation this afternoon in the Sacred Heart Church. Led by Father Fleck, the ceremony brought together song and storytelling within the overarching theme of forgiveness.
The P3’s were an absolute credit to themselves, their school and their families, such was the high standard of participation from everyone.
Gratitude is extended to the P3 class teacher Mrs McPolin for preparing the children so diligently for the Sacrament. Thanks is also relayed to our student teacher Miss Brennan along with classroom assistants Toni, Laura and Marie for their input into the preparation. For the music and singing, we acknowledge the contribution of Mr Doyle and the school choir for their sterling efforts.
Well done P3!
P6/P7 were the lucky winners of the Science In A Box competition organised by STEAM Education.
Last week marked the end of their five lessons. Pupils have engaged in a variety of topics and practical activities based around the human body. They investigated the respiratory, circulatory and skeletal systems whilst also learning about a human's vital signs and delving into the complex world of DNA and genetics.
This was a highly engaging programme with the boys and girls now readily able to explore a number of scientific concepts.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
