Prep 2 visit Drumglass Park
P2 had a fantastic time at Drumglass Park yesterday! Assisted by P7 pupil, Natsai, the children eagerly took part in an Autumn scavenger hunt, searching for colourful leaves, pinecones, acorns, and other seasonal treasures. They explored the park, noticing the changes in nature and working together to tick off items on their list. After the hunt, they enjoyed some well-earned playtime on the swings, climbing frames, and slides - a perfect way to celebrate the end of term!
Ulster Scots workshop with Prep and Inchmarlo
P1 had a wonderful time working alongside Mrs Carson-Hair and Sammy during our Ulster Scots workshop, joined by our enthusiastic P1 friends from Inchmarlo. As the session came to a close, we were delighted to welcome some familiar faces—our seasoned P2 pupils—who popped in to join us. They enjoyed the programme so much last year that they couldn’t resist coming back for more!
