Well done to Kayla, Kady and Freya who represented Holy Child in the annual badgers quiz! The girls were able to meet children from other badger sets in Derry and it was a lovely evening for everyone involved.

During these cold months in the lead up to Christmas, we have teamed up with Sustrans who have developed a Christmas Challenge that encourages children to walk, scoot or cycle to school each day. All children have been given a recording sheet and if they walk to school their teacher will stamp their sheet. All children who have walked 15 journeys to school by the 13th December will be entered into a draw with a chance to win a spot prize or a Lifecycle bicycle. Good luck everyone 🚶‍♀️ 🚲 🛴

Primary Seven pupils thoroughly enjoyed their first UICT project trip to the wonderful St. Cecilia’s College on Friday 15th. They learned how to create a PowerPoint, based on the theme of ‘’All About Me.’’ In their presentations, they mastered how to create slides, save files/documents, personalise aspects of their designs, animate text, insert text-boxes, input transitions, copy/paste from search engines, and present their slideshows. Their creativity wowed the St. Cecelia’s staff and their behaviour was exemplary, as always. Well done, P7A!

Thank you to our primary 7 pupil Anaiah, for her very generous donation of 12 Gaelic balls to the school. Anaiah is a passionate Gael. As this is her last year at Holy Child PS, she wanted to make sure her parting gift would support the Gaelic team at our school. The boys and girls have loved using the footballs at lunch time to complete drills and practise their skills.
