What a way to spend our Sunday! We are ready for rehearsals and then our main performance! Thanks to Mrs. Lowry for all her hard work, to our helpers and to our performers! Well done!

P6/7G made Christingles today. 

The orange represents the world. The ribbon symbolises Jesus. The four cocktail sticks are the seasons and the sweets God's bounty. The candle is the light of Jesus. 

Here is the inside and outside of W5's Star Dome. It was amazing! 

P6/7 visited W5's Star Dome. It was amazing travelling through space, seeing the constellations and recognising the North Star. 

Today our assembly was about Chinese New Year, Saint Brigid (it's her feast day) and the Celtic first day of spring. 

Thanks to Linda Maguire for organising a Gaelic lesson in school. John and Mandy from Aldergrove Clg. They trained the pupils in moves and then we had a game! It was a draw. We all got medals! Thanks to Mrs Whittington for inviting them to our PE lesson.

KR and year 11/12 spent a morning with Peter Crutchley from the BBC.  We chatted about Christmas and the traditions we have in our family. Our finished report is now on the BBC website - have a listen!

In 1888 Queen Victoria granted Belfast city status. Construction of The City Hall began in 1898 and was completed in 1906. So it was a Victorian design! 

Not only did we tour the City Hall but we got to meet The Lord Mayor, Deirdre Hargey and Alderman Tommy Sandford. They kindly gave the children selection boxes! 

We then had a lovely lunch in The Bobbin before we toured The Christmas Market.
