Wonderful Wellness Week!

Ms Lawless’ 5th Class – Exploring the function of the heart and lungs

Today, the children had a fantastic opportunity to investigate and handle a cow’s heart and lungs. The cow’s organs were provided by Thomas, a trainee veterinary nurse. He presented an insightful presentation and quiz that helped the children fully get involved with the investigation. It is clear the boys and girls in 5th class really enjoyed it!

Coole School’s New Buddy Bench 2019!

This week the school prepared for the unveiling of our fantastic new Buddy Bench. The Buddy Bench represents for pupils an area in the school yard that they can go to if feeling in need of a friend or a place to chat and reflect.
