Celebration Assembly

Congratulations to our first award winners of 2019 -20!!

Eco Council distributed fruit to all classes on Wednesday morning. The fruit was kindly donated from SuperValu Fruitfield and Tesco, Portadown. Pupils have enjoyed tasting fruit and making some healthy treats.

Amy Dixon from Wandering Wild Forest Schools joined us in our school grounds today. She had a campfire burning beside our vegetable patch. Each class that participated today were able to take part in a range of activities including toasting marshmallows and writing using charcoal made on the campfire. The rest of the classes will participate tomorrow (Wednesday). This outdoor session was a highlight for many pupils!
