The Primary 4 children were taking part in the Paired Maths Programme this term. The children played different maths games at home each week to encourage mathematical thinking outside of the classroom and to encourage their enjoyment of the subject. Numeracy Coordinator Mr McLaughlin presented the boys and girls with their certificates this afternoon.

Well done to our school netball team, the girls won 6-3 against Longtower in Derry yesterday.
