Cara Trainor P6
Cara is a very conscientious pupil who takes great pride in her work. Her handwriting and presentation is always excellent and most importantly, Cara takes the time to check over and correct her work.

She has been working very hard during lessons and has demonstrated a great degree of perseverance during difficult problem solving tasks.

Cara is very busy around school and contributes to many areas of school life, whether that be After School Clubs, choir, guitar or sports such as Gaelic and netball.  

She immerses herself in each activity and will always give it her best effort!

Well done on a fantastic start to the school year!

Sarah (P1), Zain (P2), Neil (P3), Aoibhe (P4), Padraig (P5), Daniel (P6) and Elizabeth (P7) were the Pupil of the Week winners today.

Well done to you all!

In recognition of Father Fleck’s advancement to Canon, the school presented him with a memento today at assembly.

The keepsake was a mosaic in the theme of the Sacred Heart. Every child contributed to the piece and we thank our staff members, Maria and Annette, for leading the creation.

Mr Maurice Redmond, Chairperson of the Board of Governors, spoke on behalf of the school as we acknowledged Canon Fleck’s new role. The presentation was made to the Canon by our youngest and oldest pupils, Kiannah-Mae and Effie, respectively.

Dundrum Tyrella Parish

We were delighted that some of our P6/P7 pupils were commended recently by the Newry, Mourne and Down Council for their entries into the annual schools’ environmental poster competition.

Today Julie from the Dogs Trust visited our school. The organisation believes that by educating young people about staying safe around dogs, we can really improve dog welfare for the better. The experiences gleaned from the visit have taught our children compassion, care and respect towards animals. 

After a couple of productive engagement sessions that were held during the 2021/22 academic year, Father Fleck has once again intimated that he would like to continue these into this new school year.

Therefore, this coming Thursday (13th October), there will be an informal session in the school hall at 3pm with Father Fleck. Topical issues of the day which are parish related along with anything else that our parents/families would like to talk about, will be open for discussion.

Parents that attend can have their child/children looked after at After School Club.

Thank you.

Today in Construction Club, students were given a challenge to create a tower using only spaghetti and play dough. They then tested the structures by placing small weights on top. The teams quickly discovered that team work makes the dream work!

The online process for admissions to P1 in Sacred Heart P.S. opens on Tuesday 10th January 2023. It will close on Friday 27th January 2023 with places being confirmed by Thursday 27th April 2023.

Well done to our P6 pupil Christopher who won the 50m Butterfly event at the schools’ gala in Bangor this morning. A great achievement!

Noah - P5

Noah has made a superb start to life in P5. He has been eager to learn from the outset and this commitment to his school work has been outstanding. 

Noah contributes to P5 in so many ways, whether it be joining in with group work, offering views/opinions during discussions or assisting a friend. 

He has a very positive outlook and this has ensured that he has given his best effort to any task that he has taken on so far. 

Keep progressing Noah!
