P4/5 have enjoyed being in our Outdoor Classroom. They have been maintaining the raised beds, digging, weeding and getting stuck in. Pupils had to work collaboratively, use tools, identify the weeds from the flowers and most importantly have fun outside.
The Outdoor Classroom is now ready for the winter months.
As part of our Eco School ethos, we work together to keep the school and village a clean and tidy place to be. We are official ‘Adopt a Spot’ holders. We have promised to keep the school, pavements in the village and playground clear from rubbish.
The pupils were disgusted at the amount of litter that had accumulated over the summer holidays.
Mr Dennison/Mrs Foster’s P4/5 class went to the forest today to find out where the McClintock ancestral home was before it was sadly demolished in 1952.
We also marvelled at the wonders that nature has provided along the way and also made time to do our PE lesson in the courtyard!
Learning outdoors is fun at McClintock PS.
After a successful 4 week programme pupils had a celebration event today.
They visited St Macartin’s Cathedral in Enniskillen where they had an enjoyable tour of The Longest Yarn’ a beautiful knitted representation of the D-Day landings. William Holmes was a very knowledgeable tour guide.
P5’s then went to the Forum Play Park to wear off some energy then finished off the day eating out at McDonald’s.
Well done pupils, keep up the good reading habits.
P4-5 completed their World Around Us topic – On Our Doorstep today with an investigative walk to a local Rath, in the forest, near to the original home of the Perry family.
Pupils heard stories of folklore and from long ago but the fairies and leprechauns didn’t make an appearance!
We appreciated the assistance of Mrs Patterson who made sure the pupils safely negotiated the more challenging aspects of the terrain.
