Hockey Blitz at Regent 

Today these pupils had fun playing hockey against other primary schools in the glorious sunshine at Regent. They played some super hockey, scored lots of great goals and worked brilliantly together as a team! What great ambassadors for our wee school. We are proud of you all! Thanks to Harry and Jack at Ulster Hockey for organising the blitz and to Joanne for helping us with transport!

Celebrating Coding Week

This week all the pupils at Glasswater PS have been coding as part of Coding Week. We have been working on algorithms and programming and have been problem-solving through debugging. We have had lots of fun with our coding activities. We had human robots, we programmed and explored getting our Beebots to various locations. In Key Stage 2, pupils used Scratch Jr to create mini projects to allow their sprites to move within different locations and scenes. Some pupils added audio and created their own scenery and sprites. Everyone across the school had lots of fun using mathematical language.

After some very persuasive speeches, the votes have been counted and our Year 7 House Captains have been elected for 2025/26. They are ready to encourage and inspire their fellow pupils to work hard, to be kind and respectful, to make healthy choices, to follow our School rules and to always do their best! They hope that lots of house points earned throughout the year will result in them winning the House Cup.....I wonder who the winner will be?

Congratulations to the successful candidates in today’s School Council elections who were voted for by their classmates to be the ’Pupil Voice’ in Glasswater this year. They are excited to get started and have lots of wonderful ideas to share with Mr Milligan and Mrs Gill!

We are so proud of all of our pupils who took part in today’s elections.
