P5/6/7 had another great day with St. Patrick’s Primary on Wednesday trying out Gaelic football and camogie at St. Mary’s GAA. Thank you to all the coaches for making it such an enjoyable experience. The children finished their final session this year with a special treat - delicious pizzas from Fullans!
We were delighted to finish our Coaching for Christ football sessions with a day of fun activities. Many thanks to Simon, Kerry and all the team at Coaching for Christ for all they have taught us during the year. Generous donations from parents allowed us to pass on a gift of £500 to Coaching for Christ.
Our P7 children have been taking advantage of the good weather to complete their Cycling Proficiency training. They all worked really hard and have learned lots of new skills. They have also been shown lots of ways to keep safe as they cycle on the road.
Pupils in P4-7 have enjoyed staying for after school tennis and have been improving their skills weekly. With thanks to Dianne who has coached and encouraged the pupils so patiently each week.
Pupils were delighted when the friendly Pantosaurus dinosaur visited school to help children remember the important ‘PANTS’ rule. Talk PANTS is here to help children understand their body belongs to them, and they should tell a safe adult they trust if anything makes them feel upset or worried.
P5/6/7 had a great day at Ballymoney Rugby club with St Patrick’s Primary, trying out lots of new rugby skills including scrumming and tackling! Thanks to Bengy and all the Ballymoney coaches for a very active and enjoyable session.
We were delighted that volunteers from Ballymena Baptist, competently led by Amazing Journey coordinator, Josh, came into school to share with children the life of Paul.
A picnic lunch was enjoyed by all, to celebrate the first week of summer sun!
Congratulations to these children who received reading certificates for April-May for Reading Eggs and Accelerated Reading. Toby won the AR cup for the first part of the summer term, with almost 50 points! Benjamin, Mark, Evie and Beth all achieved their targets with 100% accuracy! Well done!
Over the last few weeks, P6/7 have been taking part in shared sport sessions with St Patrick’s primary school supported by a grant. Thank you to the Causeway Coast and Glen’s coaches who led sessions which included football, handball, cricket, golf and athletics.
Each month we choose two areas of outstanding behaviour amongst our pupils to award. This month pupils received certificates for ‘Being Kind and Caring’ and ‘Remembering to Choose a Healthy Break’. Congratulations to all those who worked hard in these areas.
