Craft Club returned to Glasswater this afternoon and this year it has an autumnal theme. The boys and girls enjoyed time together getting creative and chatting to each other as they made some beautiful bunting today. 

Thanks so much to Elizabeth Ann for taking the time to organise and run this club for our pupils. They thoroughly enjoyed Week 1!

Today our P6/7 pupils took part in a “Restart a Heart” training session.
As a school, we are proud to have a defibrillator on site, and all staff are fully trained in how to use it. During today’s lesson, pupils asked thoughtful, mature questions and learned vital life‑saving skills that could make a real difference in an emergency.
A brilliant, empowering session for our young people.

We were delighted to welcome Colin Tinsley from Hope for Youth Ministries to Glasswater this morning. The pupils thoroughly enjoyed the songs, story and quiz that Colin shared with them and look forward to seeing him again tomorrow.

⚽️Football Friendlies at Killyleagh ⚽️

Our football team had a fantastic afternoon playing some friendly matches against other local schools. They displayed superb sportsmanship and skill throughout their matches as they worked together - passing, moving, dribbling and scoring lots of goals - to win 3 out of their 4 games. 

Thanks to Mr McFerran for organising the matches, to Pamela for helping with transport and to Philip and Becky for their support from the sidelines!

On Friday, our Primary Seven pupils spent some lovely time in the sunshine buddying up with our Primary One and Two classes.
It was wonderful to see all the children playing so well together. They were full of smiles, teamwork, and kindness. Moments like these remind us how special our school community is.

Glasswater PS were given a kind donation of wheelbarrows. We will definitely be able to use these in our outdoor learning. 
P1/2 had a fabulous time tidying around the front of school today. We were using our senses to explore the change in seasons. Autumn is definitely on the way!

Introducing this year’s House Captains for Rowallane, Delamont and Castleward! They hope to lead their respective houses to victory and win the Glasswater House Cup and Sports Cup at the end of the year. To do so they will lead by example and encourage the pupils of Glasswater to earn lots of house points in various ways….working hard, being kind, showing respect, taking care of our school environment….to name a few! 

Congratulations on your new roles boys and girls!
