The School Eco Council were excited to hold their first meeting of Term 2. Lots of exciting events coming up which we look forward to telling you about and leading. Keep an eye out on the school website for details!
Thank you to everyone who contributed to our Bag2School Collection. We are pleased to announce that the weight of all bags came to a huge 500kg which means we raised a fantastic total of £200. The School Eco Council will meet to decide how they wish to spend the money within our school. Thank you again for supporting this initiative and the work of our School Eco Council.
It was wonderful to see the children shining bright on Friday for Ditch the Dark Day as well as all the bikes and scooters with accessories.
During our School Assembly we talked about the importance of being bright and safe on dark days when actively travelling to and from school. Thank you to everyone for participating in this fun and enjoyable day and for the effort that was put into outfits and accessorizing bikes and scooters.
Huge well done to our winners of Brightest Scooter and Brightest Bike who won lights to accessorize their bike and scooter and to help them stay safe.
It was a tough decision when judging the Brightest Class but congratulations must go to Primary 4 Mrs Carpenter, our deserving winners, we hope they all enjoyed their little sweet treat.
The children all enjoyed the Red Dress Fun Run for NI Chest, Heart and Stroke and thank you to all who generously donated to this very worthwhile charity. The total amount raised will follow!
Please enjoy looking through the photos of a very memorable day!
We would like to welcome our new Eco School Councillors to their new role as part of the School Council. Mrs Carpenter and Mrs Peacocke are looking forward to meeting with them to discuss some up and coming initiatives and are really pleased with the enthusiasm and motivation they have shown for the year ahead.
Our Eco Council promoted Ditch the Dark Day and fundraiser run for Northern Ireland Chest Heart and Stroke (NICHS) during our full school assembly today. The Eco Council asked pupils to come to school on Friday 02 February wearing something red and other bright items of clothing for Ditch the Dark. Pupils will also be allowed to accessorise their scooters and bikes with fluorescent colours and lights to match their bright attire. There will be prizes for the 'Brighest Class' and the 'Brightest Bike/Scooter'. Pupils are also encouraged to donate a voluntary donation of £1.00 on the day. All proceeds will go towards NICHS.
