Barry's a Knockout
There was great excitement on Thursday 26th March when we were joined by St Columba’s for the end of the P4 ‘Happy Hearts’ programme. We were 2 of only 13 schools in Northern Ireland who were selected to take part and the P4s thoroughly enjoyed the six weeks of health and fitness training provided by the Barry McGuigan Boxing Academy. It was topped off by a visit from the man himself who congratulated them and presented the school with some equipment to help keep up the good work. Of course the rest of the school wanted to meet the Ex-world champion boxer and they were not disappointed. He spent time chatting and encouraging the children to take part in all kinds of sport so that they can enjoy a healthy, happy lifestyle.School Life
The P7s have been receiving tuition in archery over a six week period and took part in a mini tournament last Thursday. This gave them the chance to shoot outside in preparation for their big tournament next week. Good luck to all our budding Robin Hoods and Maid Marians.
The International Dance Day was on Wednesday 29th April and to celebrate the whole school spent a week learning and creating dances inspired by music from many different places around the world. On Wednesday we had a special assembly where everyone got to perform in front of the rest of the school.
Cara showed us her ballet shoes and demonstrated her positions, Lauren and Madison performed a dance they had made up themselves and each class then took to the floor.
