This week we had a very exciting few days as our Mummies and Daddies came to play in Nursery. On Tuesday and Thursday we had a busy room and lots of happy children. The parents had the opportunity to have some valuable play time with their child and also had a chance to have a quick with Mrs Preston.
We hope you found this useful and also special to spend 1 hour with your child in their school environment. Sorry we didn't manage to get a photo of everyone but here are a few snaps we managed to capture.

Year 7: Brodie & Matthew
On Friday a lady volunteer called Jill Fulton came to our school to collect our filled shoeboxes. We were delighted that we had 54 shoeboxes for Jill to take for the children in Syria. Thank you so much to everyone who contributed. Have a look at the pictures to see the boys and girls in our school helping Jill to load the operation Christmas child shoeboxes into her car.
On 14th Nov we had our third visit from Baby Joanna. Our theme was teething. Baby Joanna has no teeth yet but her Mummy thinks it won’t be long! We talked to Joanna’s Mummy about what she carries in her changing bag for Baby Joanna.
We have been extremely busy in Year 1 & 2, learning colours, numbers and even sounds! Stories have been a huge part of our learning, we have read all about the Creation story, Noah's Ark, Anna's amazing multi-coloured glasses, Elmer and Owl Babies. Take a look at some of our learning activities and play.
Take a look at our busy bees in the pupil council who are helping Mrs Harper fill the shoe boxes. So far we have 36 boxes ready for the collection on Friday. A huge thank you to everyone who sent in items for the Operation Christmas Child appeal, our boxes will be making their way to Syria in the next few weeks.
Thank you to Rev. Russell for visiting our school assembly today and sharing the special message about being thankful.
Well done to our anti-bullying ambassadors who received their new “wellness” badge today. Keep an eye on for our next ‘Feel Good Friday’ events that our anti-bullying ambassadors are organising.
Today marks the beginning of our Smartie Tube Fundraising activity organised by our PTA. Each child has received a tube of smarties which they can eat and then fill the tube with 20p’s. We would be so grateful if each family could return one tube filled with 20p’s. We will keep you updated on how many tubes have been returned and how much money we have raised. We thank you once again for your support.
The children in Miss Moore's class had great fun making fabulous Halloween lanterns with Leona from Derry and Strabane District Council. The lanterns were then on display on Halloween night at Melvin Sports Complex in Strabane.
