Have a look at what's happening in our school.
Today we held our annual Christmas service in the Church of the Immaculate Conception. This year our pupils used their Christmas preparation to think about how Christmas is celebrated in other parts of the world. They also lead us in a beautiful Christingle service with songs, prayers, tin whistle and music in Irish- maith thú!
Our youngest pupils braved the wind to post their Santa letters this week. Let's hope they arrive on time.
Preparation for the Christmas service is well under way. Thank you to Boyles shop in Ballycastle for the kind donation towards our Christingle.
Well done to Conan in P4 for coming first in his age category in the art competition run by Ballycastle credit Union.
‘Where To Turn’ is an initiative of Causeway Coast and Glens Anti-Poverty Stakeholder Steering Group. The Steering Group is made up of foodbanks, advice centres, charities and relevant statutory organisations and was set up by Council during the pandemic to connect services and ensure a whole person approach to supporting people experiencing financial difficulty.
Today we celebrated anti-bullying week in school by wearing odd socks. In assembly, we looked at this year’s theme of 'Make A Noise About Bullying'. We also did some scenarios and considered what to do if you feel you are being bullied.
On Friday we welcomed the Belfast Wren Boys to school. They performed some songs and drama and told us all about the history of the Wren Boys in Ireland.
We held our second wellbeing day of the year on Monday 6th November. During the day, pupils continued to learn about what wellbeing is and the importance of mental health. We held several workshops including music, yoga and started to create our ‘wellbeing wall’. This is something we will develop as the year progresses.
We had lots of fun this week celebrating Halloween.
