New iPads

All the children in school are enjoying using our new iPads thanks to our very committed PTA. They organised lots of events last year that were well attended to raise enough money to buy 20 new iPads and a charging unit. Our old iPads can no longer run the latest updates and have limited use, so the new ones were very much needed for teaching and learning in ICT.

P1 Fire Service Visit

P5 really enjoyed their visit from the fire service this morning. It was very exciting when the fire engine arrived and then the children had the best fun racing to see who could get into the fire-fighting outfit the quickest.

P7 Victorian Day

The P7 class had a great day, going back in time to the Victorian era. They all dressed as Victorians, including the adults in the room and acted like they were really in a Victorian school, walking with their hands behind their backs and standing up every time an adult walked into the room. They learnt about some Victorian household objects, wrote on slates, played old-style playground games and did some sewing. All while Miss Percy held the threat of the cane!
