Fivemiletown Primary School and Nursery

Primary 6 met up with St Mary's P5-7 classes for a joint session on Internet Safety provided by the Thrive Academy. The children enjoyed meeting new people alongside sharing their experiences and opinions about staying safe online.

Shared Education Joint School Council meeting held at St Mary's PS in January 2025. The children were sharing ideas on how we can further develop joint class activities this year.

Shared Education Partnership Vision Statement

Fivemiletown Primary School and Nursery Unit and St Mary's Primary School wish to build a shared environment within our schools where pupils, staff, parents and governors have a mutual respect for the diversity within our local and wider community.  Every person within the partnership will feel safe, valued and respected as an individual.  The children will be at the centre of everything we do as we strive to raise educational outcomes and lay the foundations of a society built on respect for diversity in all its forms.
