Millie and Neve's Ballet


On Tuesday afternoon Millie and Neve shared their ballet dances that they had learnt for their ballet show at the end of the year. The dances were amazing - great footwork and carefully placed fingers!!! It was beautiful and it was easy to see that they must have spent a long time practising. Thank you girls for sharing with us.

Lesley Ottey Visits


On Tuesday Lesley Ottey came into our class to help spread the environmental message that we at Ashley School are so passionate about. Today's message was about plastic rubbish - how much there is and what we can help to do about it. Lesley also had the children hel p re-create the water cycle to help them to understand how important weather is in our world. Lesley also checked our rubbish bins to see how well we were recycling.

Touch Tournament On Sunday




What a fantastic day today down at Sheldon Park, Belfast. We had a very talented group of 14 Year 3 and 4 children from Ashley School representing the Southbrook Touch Wednesday night competition. Although all Ashley players they played as "Southbrook"

It was hot and then became a little windy - but the children played their hearts out. They made it into the finals for the second year in a row...and played the same team in the final as last year. We got second but what an amazing achievement.

Five games of touch on a full sized field in the space of four and a half hours. I know that every parent who was there was very, very proud of them all. Ollie, Ra and Millie from Room 4 were part of the team.
