Meet Our Athletes – Part 9: Say Hello to the Lovely Alana! 🏃♀️
Next up in our “Meet the Athletes” series is Alana, who signed up for the Belfast Marathon Relay while she was still part of our school team — and we’re so delighted she’s continuing the journey with us!
A huge thank you to everyone who has donated so far — your support truly means so much.
If you haven’t had a chance yet, please consider supporting Alana and the team by donating or sharing our GoFundMe page. Every pound raised helps our school and supports the incredible work of NI Children’s Hospice 💛
We’re all cheering Alana on and wishing her the very best on race day! 🎉 https://gofund.me/49075e16d

🌟 A Week of Wonders in P7M🌟
✍️ Mythical Masterclass
We went digital for an online creative writing session with Kevin Moran, the Irish author of ‘The Doomsday Club’. Kevin shared his top tips on cultivating novel ideas, with a special focus on bringing creatures and characters from Irish mythology to life.
🥐 A Sensory Trip to France
Our Jumpstart writing took us on a trip to a picturesque French market. The children did a great job incorporating all five senses to create vivid, descriptive pieces that made us feel like we were really there (and very hungry for croissants!).
🧱 Numeracy Detectives
We’ve been sharpening our logic and spatial awareness this week:
• The ‘All Change’ Challenge: Developing problem-solving skills using visual diagrams.
• Volume Investigation: We got hands-on with 3D shapes, discovering multiple ways to construct different structures while maintaining the same volume.
🐣 Springtime Buddies
P7M showed great leadership during Buddy Time, helping our P1 friends with a cute Spring craft. It was a lovely way to help the younger pupils kick off their new topic, ‘Spring on the Farm’.
💭 Still I Rise
We completed our third session of the Still I Rise program, focusing on the important topic of consent. We are incredibly proud of the children’s maturity, communication, and respectful participation in these workshops.
