The Road Safe NI quiz took place in the Guildhall today for the Derry & Strabane Council Area heat. Artigarvan PS were delighted to come first place!!! Massive thanks to Road Safety NI charity for organising and to the Mayor of Derry City & Strabane District for hosting such a fantastic venue and for her kind words to the children taking part. Mrs Grace Hargan presented the medals to all 3 teams in first, second and third place and the Stevie Hargan Memorial trophy to the winners. The four girls (Lacey, Ariana, Rachel and Sarah) will represent Artigarvan PS at the final in Cookstown on 10th March. We wish them well.

We walked to the shop to visit the post office. Jennifer and Jacqueline kindly showed us the sacks the postman puts the parcels and letters into. We got to use the stamp with today’s date and we posted three letters of our own. These letters needed weighed, measured and stamped before they were placed into the sack for collection. The letters were too big for the postbox outside! On the postbox it said the post would be collected at 4pm, on our way down to the shop we met the postman delivering the mail sacks to the shop. What a fun morning we had! Thank you so much to our local shop, Spar for having us!

Today was the first day of Shared Education for Year 4. We met up with our friends from St Mary’s PS, Cloughcor and Bready Jubilee PS. We walked over to Artigarvan Hall to meet everyone. When we arrived we took part in several warm up games before we discovered what we would be doing over the next few weeks. We will be learning about three different genres of dance. We had Becki teaching us Highland dancing, Mr McCrystal taught us some Irish dancing and Melissa and Amber taught us some modern dance moves. 

We will be showcasing our dances at the end, we hope our parents can come and enjoy.
