Our current topic in Key Stage One and Two Science has been learning about force and motion. Pupils are pictured taking part in experiments to investigate which surface had the most friction. Everyone enjoys the chance to get hands-on!

Our Annual Prize Giving Service is on Friday 11th November at 7.30p.m. when pupils will sing and bring musical items. The preacher will be Rev G Ferguson, Principal of the Whitefield College of the Bible. Everyone Welcome.
Some Key Stage One and Two pupils took part in a traffic survey recently as part of an ICT task. Pupils made use of our new School entrance and ICT room to count the many vehicles that passed by on the Clandeboye and Rathgael Roads. They then went on to graph their results and create a worksheet for someone else to fill in.
Pupils and Staff at BICS have been getting back into the routines of life in the classroom! Everyone has been enjoying getting to know the new P1s: Ruby, Julia, Amber and Hannah. The girls have been settling in well and are making good progress in learning letters and sounds.
Hannah is pictured helping some of the older pupils to measure the dimensions of the brazen altar as part of their Scripture project, while Ruby, Ethan and Faith examine a model of the Tabernacle. Throughout the next few months we will be learning about the uses and spiritual significance of the various items both inside and outside the Tabernacle.
Excitement was high as Sunbeams and Key Stage One and Two pupils recently received a visit from the Northern Ireland Fire and Rescue Service. Seeing the fire fighters and fire engine was fantastic, but best of all each pupil got the chance to squirt the big hose!
Back in the classroom everyone is hard at work preparing for end of year tests and our Annual Praise Service on 15th June when pupils will sing and play musical instruments.

Exploring minibeasts gives an opportunity to consider symmetry and shape, as well as a welcome chance to do some painting! Some pupils are pictured in the process of painting their own ladybird.
