The Scoop
Your update for
September 2026
Welcome Back
Schools are a great place to work for a lot of reasons but a big one is the chance to start afresh every year. There is nothing like the first day of September when each class has a full set of unused glue sticks, pencils, rubbers, pens and exercise books. It won’t take us long to get stuck in to our learning and we’ll get plenty of use out of those shiny new resources.
One shiny new resource which is almost ready is our new full website, but we just need some up to date pics of our school in action. Peter Thomas Photography have kindly offered to take these pics for us at no cost. Peter will be in school xxxxxxx and the site will go live shortly after. In the meantime this link will take you to our class blogs which will be updated each month.

Massive Thank you!
This summer has been a busy one with a fair bit of work in the building. The corridor in particular has been transformed with new spaces opened up, a fresh coat of paint and new boards and signs. A huge thanks to Mr ‘non-stop’ Keenan and his band of volunteers from Larne Congregational church. Also thank you to Break Brand Consultancy for covering the costs of all the new internal graphics and signage.
Massive thanks to Karla for working away all summer and doing a fab job with our uniforms. More thanks again to the PTA team Katrina, name, name, name who supported Karla in this project.
Last but by no means least a huge thanks to Mrs ‘legend’ Montgomery for juggling incoming uniform orders alongside ordering paint and resources for the building.
Connect & Nurture
Over this term our children will be taking part in Connect & Nurture sessions with Mrs Galbraith. These sessions are an updated approach to circle time based on the neurosequential model. The structure is designed to bring our social engagement systems online which is vital for learning. To find out more about the neurosequential model click here. This site also has short videos with activities you can try out at home. Direct links below:
We’ll be keeping you up-to-date through Seesaw for any reminders of dates or breaking news. You can also stay in the loop by checking our calendar to see what’s on in our school.
