• Black History Week

  Fri 05 Oct 2018

  This week children have been celebrating Black History Week, with each year group focusing their learning on a different black artist. Throughout the week they have taken part in a workshop with Mr Green, thinking about how they can portray a particular piece of their artists work through music.

   

  We have taken inspiration from each artist in various ways: through PE and movement, Art, English and Maths.

  

• Football Festival

  Fri 05 Oct 2018

  On Thursday Downderry competed in a football festival hosted by Bonus Pastor. Both our boys and girls teams tried hard and supported each other really well. They were also supported by a large contingent of family members and school staff. With a record of one win, two draws and one loss, our girls team came third in the girls’ tournament. The Boys team won the boys tournament with one draw and five wins! Well done to all our players. A great start to our football season!
