International Dot Day

15th Sep 2020

International Dot Day is a global celebration of creativity, courage and collaboration. All around the world children and adults celebrate Dot Day to encourage people of all ages to harness their creativity. The inspiration behind the event is the children’s book ‘The Dot’ by Peter H. Reynolds. It relates the tale of a teacher who challenges one of her pupils to take courage in her abilities and “make a mark and see where it takes you.” 🎨

Y1/2 along with their friends in Y3/4 were inspired to collaborate on their own Dot project, and together the created the most beautiful wall display. ⭐️

Well done Mr Campbell class and Miss Moore’s class - you have definitely left your mark in APS. 👏🏻

Barney's last visit to Mitchell before we finished for our 'long holiday!'

28th Apr 2020

I had popped into Nursery today and thought it was only fair that all the boys and girls were able to see Barney's weekend with Mitchell. This was such a long time ago but I thought I would share it with you as Barney is missing all the boys and girls so much. Mitchell and Barney had such a busy weekend that started with a trip to McDonalds for a happy meal. Barney met Mitchell's 2 gorgeous dogs and he also got to listen to fantastic stories that we love in Nursery; The smartest Giant in Town and The Gruffalo. Barney and Mitchell has great fun at Donemana park playing on the swings, tunnels, bike and riding around on the John Deer Gator. They even had a visit from Mitchell's friend from nursery, Joe.

I would say both Barney and Mitchell were very tired after such a busy weekend. Thank you for all the fun Mitchell and I hope Barney gets a chance to see everyone very soon again.

Keep your eyes peeled, even Barney was staying safe!!!!! ;)

Lots of love; Barney & Mrs Preston

Wedding bells!

25th Mar 2020

On 13th March we had a special occasion to attend, a wedding! Rev. Russell met us at the church as we arrived in our extraordinary outfits, but whose wedding were we attending? We walked down the aisle and sat in a pew where we waited patiently for the bride and groom to arrive, and so they did, along with the bridesmaid and best man, of course! Rev. Russell told us all about a wedding ceremony, our newlyweds even exchanged rings, said vows to each other and gave a friendly high-five to mark the end of the ceremony and the beginning of their (pretend) marriage. Rev. Russell even had music for the bride to walk down the aisle to, accompanied by her bridesmaid, he even had a special song which was played at Mrs Kane's wedding! The children had some fantastic questions ranging from, 'why do you exchange rings?', 'why do you change names?', 'why do you get married in a church?'. Our bride had a little last minute panic that her name had suddenly changed but we reassured her that this was only a practice!

I had hoped to share these photos with you at our class assembly, I thought you would love to have a look through our special day which the children thoroughly enjoyed. A huge thank you to Rev. Russell for all of his help and for enabling this learning experience for our children!
