P6 SS

We’ve been enjoying exploring poetry to develop our reading fluency and deepen our understanding.

In groups, we dissected the language of The Jabberwocky by Lewis Carroll, discussed what the words could mean, and explored the imagery they created.

Using our imagination, we performed our verses in groups for the rest of the class—bringing this classic poem to life!

This was a very memorable and enjoyable lesson!

Today we wore odd socks to mark the start of Anti-Bullying Week! A simple but powerful way to celebrate individuality and remind ourselves that it’s okay to be different. 🧦💙

This morning our class had a brilliant time exploring the polytunnel and examining the amazing produce that has grown! As part of our Natural Disasters topic, we've been investigating the effects of global warming on crop growth and the importance of homegrown food around the world, particularly in the absence of access to shops and electricity. It was impressive to see pumpkins, butternut squash, and chillis thriving—real-life learning at its best!

We’re incredibly proud of the pupils from Miss Sweeney’s Primary 6 class who have been elected to take on important leadership roles this year — including Student Council, Eco-Council, and Digital Leaders.

These pupils have shown great enthusiasm and responsibility, and we’re excited to see how they’ll help make our school an even better place for everyone. Well done to each of them! 

Welcome to Miss Sweeney’s Primary 6 Class!

We’re excited to share all the wonderful things happening in our classroom. This half-term, our current topic is ‘Natural Disasters’ — we’re exploring the different types, what causes them, and how they impact the world around us.

Throughout the year, we’ll also dive into fascinating topics like The Vikings, The Rainforest, and Ireland, using creative activities and exciting STEM projects to bring our learning to life.

In P6, we absolutely love Art and PE, and we look forward to expressing ourselves through different forms of writing and challenging ourselves with tricky numeracy problems. There’s always something new to discover, and we can’t wait to share our learning journey with you!

This week we are celebrating Catholic Schools Week and the theme this year is 'Alive in Christ'. We have been exploring how to live life to the full in our community of friends, our faith community, our families and for the common good of all. 

Today we explored the theme of "Life to the Full in Our Families" which was marked by our favourite celebration - Grandparents Day. Grandparents hold a very special place in our family and school community, helping us to live life to the full. Today we honour the vital role our grandparents play in our lives - nurturing us, supporting our talents, encouraging us, and passing on the faith from one generation to the next.

To show our love to our parents and grandparents, we made cards filled with messages of appreciation, gratitude and love for our loved ones and then we will post them to our relations.
