A Warm Welcome to Our New Primary 1 Class! 🌟

9th Jun 2026

We were absolutely delighted to welcome our new Primary 1 pupils to school for their special visit. It was a lovely opportunity for the children to begin their journey with us, making new friends and feeling part of our school family.  

😊 Making New Friends
The boys and girls had great fun meeting their new classmates and catching up with big brothers and sisters. There were lots of smiles and excitement as everyone began to feel at home in their new surroundings.  

🌳 Indoor and Outdoor Fun
We enjoyed some time exploring the playground toys before the rain arrived. Once inside, the children settled down to listen to the much-loved story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar, which certainly got everyone thinking about snack time!  

🍎 Learning Through Play
After enjoying a tasty snack, the children had time to play and explore in both the classroom and playroom, discovering all the exciting activities on offer.  

🎈 Buddy Time
Before heading home, our new P1 pupils met up with their buddies in the hall for some fun parachute games—lots of laughter and teamwork to end a wonderful visit.  

🌟 Looking Ahead
We hope you all have a lovely summer and we look forward to welcoming you back again in September as you begin your exciting P1 journey with us.  

From strong roots, great things grow. 🌱✨
