4 wonderful pupils went with Mr A to Stormont on Thursday 7th March 2013 to join NICIE, lots of other pupils from many Integrated primary and post-primary schools and some distinguished guests to celebrate International Integrated Education Week (#IIEW2013 – for all you tweeters out there!)
The children were very well behaved and represented their school splendidly as well as contributing to the whole ethos of the event.
This was hosted by Trevor Lunn MLA in the Long Gallery and the children made short shift of the welcoming scones and tea!!
We have been marking IIEW in many ways this year in school and will be joining together on Friday 8th (tomorrow) to share and celebrate our efforts across the school all of this week. There will be more pictures, video and commentary to follow………..
Here are some photos of the children up at Stormont.

School Dinners menu Mar _Apr 2013
Today, pupils from Primary 3 went to St Mary’s on the Hill to make their first sacrament of confession / penance. The service was led by Father Damien and supported by Father John Forsythe. All the children were wonderful and the teachers did a fab job in preparing them for it. Also in support was our fantastic KS1 choir of P3 and P4 pupils who sang beautifully. Parents and family were then invited back for refreshments at the school with their children. It was a lovely event. Here are some photos of the day.

Cool FM Media Bus visits P7
Sonia Mac, Kelly and the rest of the team from CoolFM supported by The Cooperative came to visit and deliver a “Fair Trade” workshop to P7 pupils on Monday 4th March 13. The pupils all had the opportunity to write and design scripts for a radio advert which they then were allowed to record and playback as a proper advert with jingles using the CoolFM technology for on air broadcasting. Kids had a great time and learnt new skill and knowledge whilst on the bus. Big thanks to all involved in supporting our pupils.
The Photos can be found here
Here are some small videos from the event:

As P7 pupils prepare for Confirmation 2013, they spent a lovely day of contemplation with Mrs McCann at the La Salle Retreat. This gave the children an opportunity to reflect and consider the decisions they are preparing to make.
