North Pres. Health and Wellbeing Week
June 15th – 19th 2020
The boys and girls of North Pres. have worked so hard at home since our school closed that we decided they deserved a real treat.
So for this week, we are all working from the same Wellbeing Week Padlet (link below). There are lots of activities to choose from, such as:
We’d love if you would tell us about your two favourite activities of the week. You could draw, write or send a photo telling us about them and send them to the class teacher. You could also write a little note on the Padlet.
Have fun everyone, we hope you have a great Health and Wellbeing Week!

Today we were very lucky to have a special visitor to our school! Cian from ATP Fitness in Douglas came to do some outdoor fitness training with some classes. It was a great opportunity for the children to exercise in the fresh air and everyone enjoyed the fun games, upbeat music and new fitness moves! Many thanks Cian!!
The second class girls had lots of fun this morning taking turns at telling their future! The girls all look amazing for the Dress Up Day! Well done on such creative costumes girls!!
2nd class had great fun this week taking part in a scavenger hunt in the garden. They really enjoyed seeing all of the changes that Autumn brings!!
All the children love being back with their friends and their teachers in the school. Here are some photos of some of the classes working, playing and enjoying the weather out in the convent garden.

The children in North Pres are having lots of fun at home during our Health and Well-Being week. Look at the photos below of what they have been up to.
The students and teachers had a great day celebrating World book Day this year. The children from 1st and 4th classes walked down to Waterstones. They used their world book day vouchers to buy books. There was also a story teller there who read them a story. They had a great time. 5th class and Junior Infants went reading together. They really enjoyed reading Mr. Men books. All the classes and some of the teachers enjoyed dressing up as their favourite characters from books.
For Engineers week the school held a Lego workshop in the blue room for all students from Junior Infants up to 6th Class. The Brickx Club came and provided all the Lego and help for the day. The children built some wonderful structures and showed great imagination when building. Everyone agreed that they had a great day.
The school held our February assembly recently. 1st class started the assembly with a wonderful presentation on their inspirational person, Tom Crean. The kindness award for the month went to a boy in Senior Infants. Ms. Egan announced the first " Stars of the Yard". These are children who were kind and helpful towards other children out in the yard. Senior Infants finished our assembly with a wonderful performance of a song about Spring and a lovely Irish poem.
The first whole school assembly of the new year was held last week. Third class gave a very interesting presentation of Andrea Bocelli as their Influential Person in History. The Kindness award was presented to a student from Senior Infants. Junior Infants gave a great performance of a song about a little snowman and a lovely Irish poem. The whole school finished off the assembly by singing "The Banks of my own Lovely Lee".
