Shared Education

Shared Education

Last year 2019/20 Primary 3, Primary 4 and Primary 5 participated in the Shared Education project with St Mary's Primary School. By working in partnership with schools of a different type to ours, children have the chance to meet and learn with young people from a wide range of different backgrounds. Our teachers also have this opportunity and through the partnership get to promote good relations and work together to improve educational outcomes.

Primary three focused on STEAM and the topic 'The Seaside'. They enjoyed a visit from Scientific Sue who led a workshop on electricity. They used these skills to make a lighthouse with a working circuit.

Primary Four focused on the areas of Music, Art and P.E with their activities. They enjoyed an Ice-breaker day during which they played games to get to know each other.

Primary Five focused on STEAM and the topic 'Egyptians' during their activities. They enjoyed a visit from a team at W5 who will presented a number of experiments. Pupils then had the opportunity to take part in a workshop.

This is our third year participating in Shared Education. What a fun few years it has been!
