P7 Reading Millionaire - December 2022

P7 Film Buff Club November 2022 
The P7s had a visit from Lorraine Into Film who launched the Film Buff Challenge which is an exciting way to engage with film like never before, by watching a wide range of short films that will challenge and open up viewing choices.

As well as being fun, Film Buff Challenge is also a powerful educational tool with a range of supporting activities and resources to explore key themes and topics.

We are looking forward to having the Film Buff Challenge take our P7 pupils on a magic carpet ride through different genres, countries and film mediums, to widen their horizons and broaden their knowledge of a world they may never have experienced before.

P7 Jubilee UICT Creative Work May 2022 

Made with Padlet

Reading Targets for Term 1 achieved

Each child in the P7 class was set a reading target of the number of words to aim to have read by the end of December and the first term.  The children below did very well an achieved their target number of words.  Some children beat their target by a large margin.
​Well done to everyone and to all the children in the class who have been working hard on their reading.

Dance class

Healthy Minds and healthy bodies

Being active is not only great for the P7s’ physical health and fitness.

Evidence also shows it can also improve mental wellbeing by raising self-esteem and causing chemical changes in the brain which can help to positively change mood.

Great to have sport coaching from Stephen Watson who works with the The Irish Football Association.

Lots of fun games developing agility, accuracy, co-ordination and teamwork.

Fantastic to see the children having fun and being active

P7 Coding Club November 2020

The P7s were delighted to take part in the second of six code club sessions today as part of the #TimeToCode "Code Along With…" initiative
This club took place in our P7 classroom and Darren connected remotely with us using Microsoft Teams.

He was visible on our giant screen panel and guided the lucky P7s through the steps to complete this these projects.

The second session focused on the children’s well-being as they used Scratch to code a virtual butterfly garden 🦋
