Have you seen the new Talking Post in the village? It is situated at the entrance to the River Walk at Conway Park! Turn the handle to generate power and then listen to stories about the village, the river and the environment. Pictured are 2 very excitied pupils whose voices you might recognise when you have a go!
A delicious start to our Tuesday morning in P5 after talking about the importance of Shrove Tuesday. Lots of happy faces and full bellies! 
This week is Children’s Mental Health Week. This year’s theme is Growing Together.
In P5 we have been considering how we grow, who helps us grow and how we can help others grow. We discussed that “failure” does not always need to be a negative word and how we grow from our mistakes.
The children were asked to create their own ‘Support Balloons’ and consider the people/animals in their lives who help them grow and who they would turn to if things got tough or if they needed support. They then connected a line between all these individuals. Here is a sample of the support balloons the children made this week.
In P5 we celebrated St Brigid’s Day by making St Brigid’s crosses. The boys and girls learnt about the importance of St Brigid and why we celebrate her feast day. 
Here we have the end result of our Nativity, “Christmas Stars.”
A big “Well done” to all the Primary 5s for their dedication and hard work over the past few weeks.
We hope you enjoy and I am sure you will agree that there are 27 Christmas Stars in this class.
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from all in P5.
P5 have been lucky enough to have the opportunity of learning the African Drums for the past 4 weeks. They enjoyed every minute of it and a big thank you goes out to Jimmy and Austin. Thank you for everything, especially playing the fun drumming games! The class loved them. Lots of future drummers in this class!
A big “Thank You” to David Rushe for visiting Primary 5 yesterday to discuss the importance of fire safety. The children learnt so much about the rules regarding charging electric devices, the safety needed with matches and what to do / who to call, in the case of a fire. All the fire alarms in our homes will be checked this weekend.

It was a busy week in St Mary’s as we celebrated Maths Week Ireland 2021. Everyone from Nursery to P7 enjoyed participating in an array of Maths Week activities. Congratulations to everyone who participated, all of our prize winners, P3a for guessing the correct amount of pumpkins in the jar, P6 for correctly guessing the weight of the pumpkin, and a special shoutout to Master McCoy’s P7 class for winning one of the St. Paul’s Maths Week Challenges. Thank you to everyone who helped to make Maths Week such a great success. Have a lovely Halloween break!
