Primary 7 Leavers Day !

23rd Jun 2021

What a memorable day the Primary 7 children had! The day was kicked off by the children watching their leavers’ video, showcasing their happy memories and experiences throughout their seven years of primary school.

Then, they were cheered on and congratulated by the rest of the school during a surprise lap of honour. Their fellow school mates designed banners and posters with lots of good wishes and farewell messages. It was certainly an emotional moment for our whole school community! The Primary 7s loved the limelight and were honoured to get this send off from the whole school.

It doesn’t often happen, but our Primary 7s were lost for words when they were brought to the hall for dinner. The doors were opened by Mrs Quinn and Mrs Paula O'Neill to reveal a wonderfully decorated hall with balloons and an amazing array of savoury food. The highlight of the party was the sweet cart; the children especially enjoyed toasting their marshmallows, dipping strawberries in the chocolate fountain and munching on popcorn!

In the afternoon, the leavers wrote their hopes for their future on (eco-friendly) balloons and these were set free by the class in unison. What a special way to end their day!

We would like to thank Mrs Selina Mallon (The Food Hut) for preparing the wonderful spread and providing ‘The Wagon’ sweet cart with all the treats!

We would also like to thank Mrs Joanne Askin for decorating the Leavers’ Party room so beautifully with all the balloons and display boards!

Selina and Joanne made sure that the hall was perfect for the children. Thank you so much!

Primary 7s, you have been a credit to our school. We would like to take this opportunity to wish you all the best in your new school and your future.

We said a final goodbye to our P7 pupils with a balloon release. The children wrote some of their wishes and dreams for the future on their balloons. We would like to wish all of our P7 boys and girls the very best as they embark on the next phase of their education. We look forward to seeing them again soon when they visit to tell us how they are getting on.
