Halloween Disco

A big thank you to the parent support group and all those who helped in any way to make the Halloween disco such a success. We had probably our biggest crowd ever in the Parochial hall enjoying the music and party games. The costumes were fantastic and we had prizes galore for the children and parents.

After School Clubs

The after school camogie club is now finished and we are very grateful to Mrs Leona Gallagher and Miss Francis Bigley for their time and hard work in promoting camogie at primary school level. The after school football club and cooking club will finish on Tuesday evening and the basketball club will continue for two more weeks.

Road Safety

Due to the increase in pupil numbers in the school, home time continues to be a very busy time around the front of the school. Cars should be parked on the school side of the road. This prevents traffic build up and allows the children to walk up the footpath home. Please inform those who are picking your child up from school about this. We really appreciate your cooperation in this matter.

Parent Teacher Meetings

The children will be going home from school at 11 O’clock on Wednesday 10th of November to facilitate the parent teacher meetings. Please ensure that your child has a lift home at that time. We will send out a date and time of your meeting. If this time is not suitable please contact the school office and another time will be arranged.

School Photographer

On Tuesday 19th of October, County Photographs will be sending their photographer to the school. This year there will be a greater variety in photograph styles and backgrounds.

Basketball Club

Basketball club will now be open to children in Primary 4 on Monday evenings. Any Primary 4 child who is staying for the basketball club will need to be collected at 4pm at the school. The cost is £1 per session.

After School Cooking Club

There will be no afterschool cooking club on Tuesday 12th of October. The club will resume on Tuesday 19th.

Linguistic Phonics

We are inviting all the parents of children in Primary 1,2 and 3 to join us for an evening of Linguistic phonics on Wednesday 13th of October. This will be led by our own teachers here in the school and will be very helpful for parents interested in helping their children's development in reading. The evening begins at 7pm.

Golf Lessons

Primary 6 and 7 children were treated to their first golf lesson by Mr Chris Jelly on Friday at Dungannon Golf Club.

The children began their series of lessons learning how to putt on a golf green.
