Primary 1 have been showing their creative side by using hand prints to make bunches of roses and paper plates to make love bugs. They brought them home to their families to show them how much they love them on Valentine’s Day. ❤️
Our Spanish teacher has been teaching us how to say the names of familiar pets in Spanish. To help us remember we decorated pictures of pets and shared photos of our own pets. We decorated our display with the colours of the Spanish flag by making patterned paper chains.
Primary 1 have been learning about patterns. They painted penguins and made patterned scarves for them. This was linked to a short poem about penguins that we had been learning as part of our Polar Regions topic. To finish our pattern display the children made patterns using paper chains.
As part of ‘Mental Health Week’ primary one joined an online art lesson. The theme of the activity was ‘Art Makes Us Happy.’ They were guided through the process of creating their own version of Claude Monet’s ‘Path in the Wheat at Pourville.’ They followed the lesson brilliantly and the end results were outstanding for such a young age group. It certainly was a wonderful way to make everyone happy. Fantastic work primary 1. 🎨🖌️
Primary 1’s coloured a picture of St. Brigid and then painted her cloak onto the class window. They made crosses using a St. Brigid’s cross template and strips of green paper. They also helped to make St. Brigid crosses using rushes. Fr Clyne blessed them at mass and each pupil got a cross to take home.
Disco fun for Primary 1 at our fancy dress Halloween disco. 👻🎃
Primary 1 had a fantastic day at the Palace Stables Armagh. They learned all about the journey of the apple from the tree to our homes and they met some wonderful characters from the past who taught them about making apple potato bread and apple juice. They also enjoyed taking part in an apple craft activity and were delighted with their finished creations which they got to take back to school. 🍏🍎
A picnic lunch and a chance to play rounded off our Sports Day perfectly. 🧺🤩
