🐦 The boys and girls in Mrs Soal’s & Mr Kelly’s class enjoyed taking part in the Big Bird Watch. They spotted magpies, pigeons, blackbirds, starlings and even a robin.🐦‍⬛

🐧 As part of the 'Big Bird Watch', the P1 children have been making bird feeders and distributing them around the school grounds. 👀 P1 went on a hunt to find how many types of birds they could spot. Mrs Doherty even brought along her Dad's binoculars - it was great fun!🦅

Good attendance at school is essential. Every day a child is absent is a day of lost learning. Attending school also helps to develop social skills, life skills & friendships. More info: nidirect.gov.uk/campaigns/miss… #MissSchoolMissOut
