“Reading is dreaming with open eyes” Anissa Trisdianty

We celebrated World Book Day this year and it was amazing! Take a look at the slideshow of some of our fantastic pupils and their costumes.

SHNS Newbawn would like to formally invite you to our School Open Night which is being held on Thursday 30th of January from 6:30 – 7:30pm

Come and see our School, meet the Staff and some of our pupils and get a feel for what our School is all about.

You won’t be disappointed!

Christmas celebrations are in full flow in SHNS. We had a lovely visit from our friends in Scurri who allowed us to host their Christmas card design competition this year. The winning designs are pictured below and as you can see they were expertly designed by our wonderful pupils. Thanks to all our pupils for participating it was a hard task to pick the winners and Scurri were blown away by the creativity in our school. Big Thank You also to Scurri for the fabulous chocolate treats for the whole school.

We look forward to seeing what great initiatives they come up with throughout the school year.

5th and 6th class went on an overnight stay all the way to Omagh for their school tour.

They set out on the long bus journey from SHNS at 9am and made their first stop at Ardgillan Castle where they enjoyed orienteering. They explored all the grounds, played soccer, posed for pictures and covered every inch of the fabulous playground.

The boys and girls then reached Gortin and settled in to the hostel. The facilities were excellent and the children had lots of fun in the playground, on the huge AstroTurf and on the indoor basketball court.

After breakfast the next morning they set of to Baronscourt Estate where they had an excellent day facilitated by The Pushkin Trust. The children participated in dance, creative writing and an environmental walk.

They finished their trip with dinner at the Sperrin Restaurant and returned to SHNS at around 9.30pm.
