Holywood Steiner School

Thanks to everyone who came to support us today at our ASDA bag pack! A very special thank you to Victoria Gregg, the community champion who organised it for us ☺️. We are really proud of the amount we raised for our amazing school 😁🙃

As the end of another school year with these amazing humans draws closer, what a fantastic way to round off the penultimate week.
Geology studies along our beautiful (if not a tad soggy) coastline, camping at the school complete with games, a bbq, fire and smores, and finishing off our class project by spending the morning collecting litter in Ballymenoch Park and Seapark Beach.
So what was the class project? During our studies of the birth of Islam, the class were moved by t...he idea of 5 pillars and decided to come up with their own. They have challenged themselves, helped without seeking reward, thanked those people who go unnoticed, given to charity either through time or donation and helped to make their community cleaner. I am so proud of all of them. What an amazing, busy year it has been and we're not even done yet!

Programme with backstory. Not for the faint of heart. If you thought GOT was bad, it is because you hadn’t read Sophocles.

Class Seven are performing The Burial at Thebes, a play based on Sophocles’ Antigone, translated by Seamus Heaney. It is suitable for children 11 years and over. Come along for the performance on 20 th June Thursday, 7 pm and 21 June 2019 at 11.15 am. It lasts for an hour and 15 minutes.

Rehearsals are full of unexpected moments... like this one when a sword was thrown a little too vigorously ....

🌟Competition winner!🌟

Congratulations! We’ll be in touch for you to collect your prize 😁

Class 6 have arrived at their last main lesson block of the year, September seems so long ago. This week we are investigating the natural phenomenon of magnetism. We have spent time playing with and feeling its forces, and today we have observed it. It is a piece of art in itself. It's incredible the amount of questions that have been generated in three days, this is what learning is all about.
