As an extension of our IDL materials topic, Primary 1B have been learning all about houses and homes. Within this topic, pupils have had the opportunity to use various art utensils to create our classroom display. The children have used their knowledge of materials, 2D and 3D shape to create and design different homes.

Most recently we completed a local observation walk; marking the building and shapes that we spotted on our way. The information was then used to build profiles about our town.

The pictures below show some of our IDL and health and wellbeing activities. In this lesson the children explored the different ways to travel. We then worked collaboratively to create shapes with our bodies; linking to our IDL work.

Primary 1B will investigate different types of energy.

On Tuesday 8th March, Primary 7 travelled to St Augustine’s RC to participate in a retreat day. We met with other Primary 7’s from St Joseph’s, Fox Covert RC, St Cuthbert’s and St Margaret’s and worked alongside them during three activities. The activities involved music, art and dance. It was a great way of getting to know other pupils who may be in our first year classes next year! The day finished with Mass lead by Monseignor Duffy and the art work that we created was included as part of the offertory.

Primary 1 presented a beautiful assembly linked to the Year of Mercy. They were confident individuals in their delivery of information and songs. The sang beautifully and show cased their acting skills through various drama performances. Well done!!!
