Welcome

Welcome to Ballycarrickmaddy Primary School, where it is our aim to develop ‘Learning for Life’.

Across our school community we have created a happy and stimulating environment where every child is valued and encouraged to achieve their best. We are a busy but friendly school, with lots going on. This website aims to give you a taster of the school, as well as providing regularly updated information for both parents and pupils.

No website can really give you a complete feel for our ethos and atmosphere. Therefore, if you feel you would like to visit the school and see us in action please do not hesitate to contact the school office to arrange a tour.

Thank you for taking the time to look at Ballycarrickmaddy Primary School’s website.

🌟 Stage Success 🌟

While we were all enjoying our half-term break, our very own star, Zoe, took to the stage in a sell-out show at the Waterfront Hall over the weekend.

After successfully auditioning over the summer, Zoe performed as a member of the chorus in the musical production of The Addams Family. This is Zoe’s fourth stage show this year alone, and we’re sure it won’t be her last!

🌟 Well done, Zoe! 🌟

Here at Ballycarrickmaddy Primary School, we love seeing our pupils excel and develop their talents both inside and outside the classroom.

🎩💍 A little trip back in time for P6 today!

We had great fun in the forest playing a traditional Victorian game of Hunt the Ring. Everyone thought it was a fantastic game and thoroughly enjoyed getting involved!

A lovely way to bring history to life through play! 🌳✨

Harvest at Mad Dogs

The children have had so much fun the last couple weeks celebrating Harvest. With a wide range of fun, games and crafts everyone was had something fun to do.
The children even had a go a some acrostic poetry to describe the values needed in their leaf bear to be part of our school.

Pumpkins played a big part of the weeks with all the children being surprised at how much they enjoyed toasted pumpkin seeds, pumpkin bread and of course pumpkin soup.

On National Apple Day (21st October) a special treat of making chocolate slices was part of snack.

What a fantastic half term!

The staff would like to wish all the pupils a safe and enjoyable midterm break, hoping everyone is back for loads more great activities on the run up to Christmas!
