Welcome

 

As the Principal of St Brigid’s Primary School, I extend to you a very warm welcome to our website.  Through this we aim to give you a flavour of some of the school events, visitors and experiences offered to our children.

St Brigid’s is a Catholic maintained, co-educational primary school, where the children are at the heart of every decision we make and everything we do. We value the great relationships that we have formed with our parents and acknowledge the dedicated work and commitment of the Staff, Governors and Parents Association.

We enjoy a warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and it is this distinctive ethos which enables the children to flourish and succeed giving them the skills, attitudes and desire to achieve their full potential. 

I hope that you find our website informative and interesting and gain some insight into how we fulfil our school motto: 'Learning and Growing Together'.  If you would like to see our school and experience our ethos I would be delighted to meet with you.

Thank you for visiting our website.

Kind regards

Dolores Miller

Principal

Life in St Brigid's

P6/7 were given a list of items to measure and had to decide upon the most appropriate equipment to measure with and the most appropriate units of measurement. After making good estimates, we used rulers, measuring tapes and trundle wheels to accurately measure a range of outdoor equipment around our school.

❤️🌍Celebrations for World Heart Day🌍❤️ Today in St Brigid’s we wore red to celebrate those in our community who suffer with heart conditions. In all classes we celebrated by completing crafts, learning more about how our bodies and particularly how our hearts work and why they are so important. The whole school was also inspired to hear Eloise’s and Amelia-Rose’s stories during assembly. All funds that were raised today will be donated to a Northern Irish charity, ‘Children’s Heartbeat Trust’.
Today we celebrated National Teaching Assistants Day with a whole school assembly presenting each of our classroom assistants with a little gift to recognise their dedication and commitment to the children in our school. We are blessed to have a fantastic team. Thank you classroom assistants! ‘A classroom assistant takes a hand, opens a mind and touches a heart.’
Primary Five enjoyed taking part in an experiment to show how our hearts pump blood around the body. They used a balloon for the heart and straws to represent the veins and arteries. ❤️👩🏼‍🔬🧑🏽‍🔬
🐻 📚 Buddies Story time📚🐻 P1 and P7 enjoyed sharing a story together during Buddy time today It is lovely to see how their friendships are growing already!
