• Choir trip to St Mark's Church

  Wed 27 May 2026

  The choir enjoyed a fantastic trip to St Mark's Church on Wednesday 13th May to attend a workshop run by the John Brown University Chapel Choir as part of their tour to Northern Ireland from Arkansas. Our choir had the opportunity to participate in singing activities along with JBU choir and Strathearn Prep as well as perform two of our own pieces in this beautiful setting. The boys and girls sang beautifully, a real testament to all their hard work over the past year. The choir also got the chance to listen to the incredible JBU choir perform various songs. A big thanks to Mrs Beattie for organising the workshop for them.

  

• P4 classes commemorating VE Day 1945

  Mon 18 May 2026

  The P4 classes had a great time commemorating VE Day 1945 style as part of their World War 2 topic. As well as decorating the classroom with bunting, they played Queenio, skipped and played Jack Straws, dominoes, cards and tiddlywinks. They also sang big band songs and used their ration books at their very own shop. It was an amazing day full of fun and no technology was needed!

  

• Delmont Residential Trip

  Wed 06 May 2026

  The two P7 classes had a fantastic time at Delamont Education Centre on their residential trips last week and threw themselves enthusiastically into all the activities they did. The centre staff were also extremely complimentary about their behaviour during their stay. Thank you as well to all the staff who gave up their time to accompany the two groups - Mrs Ellitson, Mrs McDougall and Mr Ryden. We are so lucky to have such dedicated staff who want to give the children such amazing opportunities. They will have made memories that will stay with them for the rest of their lives. Mrs Ellitson put this lovely video together as a memento of the two classes' time away.

• Bangor Choral Festival

  Tue 05 May 2026

  On Thursday 23rd April, our school choir performed for the first time at Bangor Choral Festival along with lots of other schools. The choir sang beautifully in front of almost 300 people and received very positive comments from the judges. We are very proud of all the hard work choir put into this superb performance. Well done to Mrs McDonnell and Mrs Mitchell for all their time and effort preparing the choir for the festival.
