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

EU Code Week To celebrate EU Code Week, every class took part in some coding classes, learning to follow and create an algorithm. We tinkered with unplugged coding, beebots, dot and dash, scratch, sphero, Micro:Bit, Just2Easy and our P7s even earned some certificates for taking part in an hour of code. Who knows, we might even have some future website designers and engineers in St Brigid’s.
Tonight we celebrated Primary 7’s Service of Light. We are so proud of all your hard work in preparation for tonight and your beautiful singing throughout the service.
Well done to our P7 footballers who had their first outing at the East Down Football League today. The boys performed well and won all three of their games!⚽️
Our digital leaders, The Techno Turtles, celebrated EU Code Week, with a coding workshop. We used Micro:Bit, Sphero, Dot and Dash, Beebot, and Scratch, to create algorithms, scripts and debug any errors, to programme our equipment. It was also a great day, as we got our badges and officially became Digital Leaders in our school.
🔎🍁Outdoor Play🍁🔎 Primary One children had an abundance of learning opportunities to develop negotiation skills, problem-solving, self-regulation strategies and social skills while playing outdoors in our wonderful bank area.
