The UTV film crew were in school today to record our school choir. Their performance will be shown on UTV Live next week. We will confirm which night the recording will be broadcast so you can tune in to hear the sweet sound of their singing! They were simply wonderful today, a real credit to our school. Thanks to Lindsey and Rosemary for all your hard work and effort to get the choir ‘TV ready!’ #smallschoolbigheart
One of our Year 5 pupils was presented with a polo shirt and mug from Down Academy Pipes and Drums, after winning a competition to design their logo! We think the design looks fantastic and all at Glasswater are so proud of her! Well done! #smallschoolbigheart
Thank you to the lovely folk at Lissara Presbyterian Church for inviting our choir to their Knitting Group today. The children enjoyed their visit. #smallschoolbigheart
Glasswater enjoyed their Christmas Dinner this week with fun, laughter, dancing and the traditional Conga around the hall! Thanks to Rita, Mrs Thompson and their band of elves - you are all amazing. Thank you also to Saintfield Central Meals Kitchen for the delicious food. #smallschoolbigheart
Specsavers Downpatrick have kindly donated some ‘high-vis’ jackets for our pupils to wear when they are out and about in the village! Thanks so much to Specsavers and to the PTA for coordinating this valuable donation! #smallschoolbigheart
We are absolutely over the moon to have been asked to sing on UTV Live at Six just before Christmas . The choir were practicing this morning and sounding totally incredible. We are so thankful to Rosemary Owen and Lindsey McConomy for their work with the choir. A snippet of the chosen song is on the P4/5 class page. #smallschoolbigheart
P1/2 love welcoming visitors to our classroom and have been as busy as Santa’s elves over the last few weeks getting ready for our Open Night. We’ve uploaded a little video of the classroom to our Class Page and you can ‘Sneak a Peek’ on our FaceBook page. #smallschoolbigheart
Today our wonderful school councillors organised all the new play equipment that they ordered for the playground! All we need is a dry day to get out and enjoy it!
Thank you to all who supported last year’s fundraising, as this money was used to buy new toys for the pupils to enjoy at break and lunch each day!
Playground Pals will also be on duty each day to play alongside their fellow pupils. Thank you School Council.
