St Patrick's Primary School, Cullyhanna

Primary 1

We’re delighted to welcome everyone to our class page, especially our new Primary 1 pupils, along with their parents, carers, families, and friends.

Our aim is to make each child’s transition into Primary 1 smooth, happy, and exciting. The Foundation Stage curriculum builds on the wonderful experiences children have had in Nursery or Pre-school. Learning through play continues to be a big part of our day, alongside more structured activities that help children grow and learn in a fun and supportive environment.

We hope the new challenges and adventures in Primary 1 will keep every child motivated, curious, and full of enthusiasm for learning!
