World Book Day

3rd Mar 2017

A special ' World Book Day' for Year 3 to Year 7 pupils. Friday 3rd March was a memorable day for Year 3 to Year 7 pupils when they travelled to the Market Place Armagh to listen to stories from renowned and world travelling storyteller Liz Weir. We arrived in Armagh for the early morning 9.30am slot and we were treated to a range of stories and rhymes in which the children were able to participate. Liz also showed us a selection of her very own children's books. Following the story telling session we travelled to Gosford Park, just outside Markethill. This park has lots of fun areas which the children enjoyed and a special treat was watching all the reindeers being fed by the Park Ranger. From there we travelled to McDonalds in Newry where all children were treated to a Happy Meal.

It really was an enjoyable and memorable day.
