We are delighted to use this space to share our plans at Ballougry Primary School. We are always working extremely hard to improve the facilities and the provisions which are available at school for our children. We have a hard-working staff who invest their time and energy in improving the facilities within our school grounds and they are always considering curricular links and inclusion of all year groups in new provisions.

Provision for our children

We have developed a new sensory space/room within school. This room is available to all of our children whenever they need and consists of many different resources including different lights and lighting objects, sensory items, music, dark corner using a child's tent, colourful seat areas, and an interactive whiteboard. Sensory rooms are incredibly important for children's development and allowing time for them to process their thoughts and feelings. 

Our dedicated library space gives the children somewhere to go when they need to select new books, a space with colourful seating options, and plenty of light. The calming area of a library allows class groups to go there for reading time, or simply to listen to their teacher sharing a story. The library is stocked with a wide selection of books for children to choose for our Accelerated Reading programme.  Reading should be done in a relaxing and calming atmosphere and this dedicated library space will provide that. 

Our School Facilities

We have continued to invest in the upkeep and development of our school building as a whole. Many areas of the school are benefiting from this investment, allowing us to keep our school clean, tidy, and a special place.

• Through Department of Education funding we have purchased new outdoor equipment for the front garden. This is a vibrant, interactive space for younger children to learn and explore through structured play.
• We recently were awarded our Eco-Schools Green Flag and we continue to focus on learning outdoors in this beautiful rural location.

We will continue to invest in our school and you can watch our updates here. We would love if anyone can help us in any way to please get in touch and let us know!
