Primary Planet News!!!
Each month our 5th & 6th classes receive their own copy of The Primary Planet. The Primary Planet is Ireland’s first children’s news magazine. News, sport, music, entertainment, and politics are some of the many topics featured in this exciting publication each month. Aimed at the senior classes, this newspaper style glossy magazine contains 40 pages of fresh, topical and up to date features each month.
Its purpose is to bring news, sport and entertainment to children in a language they understand and in a manner they can easily relate to. It also encourages children to read and write for a purpose, providing opportunities for them to contribute to the magazine and engage with our readers.
There is always great excitement when the monthly delivery arrives into our classroom.
Keep an eye on our web page to find out what new, interesting, fun and inspiring things our class has learned from reading The Primary Planet.
