• Visit to the new houses.

  Thu 19 Sep 2024

  We got the opportunity to visit the new housing development on the island this week and find about the progress of the buildings. Micky, from Lowry’s, showed us around and explained how the houses will be heated and how the electrics work in a modern house. This was particularly important for our KS1 pupils who are looking at buildings in the World Around Us topic.

  We had a morning FULL of information about the LIFE Raft eradication project happening on our island! It’s important that we all keep safe during the ongoing project.

   

  Massive thanks to Rauri and Biz from LIFE Raft for showing us your cool equipment, explaining how to use it safely and what to do if we spot something wrong!

  

• Wellbeing Day Sep 2024

  Mon 02 Sep 2024

  Our first wellbeing day of 24/25 had a focus of ‘connect and re-connect’. Pupils got the opportunity to re-connect with their school friends and think about the importance of talking to each other. We also used the day to take part in some sporting activities and finished by planting new flowers in our garden. Pupils got the chance to use the new sports equipment kindly donated by Antrim and Ulster GAA. We welcomed back ex-pupils in Yrs. 8 and 9, now at CPC, for the day.
