Superheroes Day 2026! 🦸🦹😊

Everyone here at Knockbreda really enjoyed dressing up as Superheroes to raise money for the amazing charity Autism NI.
Thank you kindly to all the parents who contributed and dressed their children up magnificently. It was lovely to see all the different costumes. We were able to raise a brilliant £97 for this wonderful charity.

The children were able to make their own masks and talk about what superpowers they could have.

Our visit from the amazing fire fighters.

Thank you so much to the amazing fire fighters who came and visited our Nursery this week. The children learned so much and had a lot of fun! They even started dressing up and roleplaying as fire fighters. 🔥🧯🚒👨‍🚒

Ministerial Visit

On 22 January 2026, twelve of our children visited St Bernard’s Montessori Pre‑School to take part in a special ministerial event. During the visit, they met the Parliamentary Under‑Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, the Minister for Early Education, and representatives from the Department of Education and the Shared Education team. Our pupils were wonderful ambassadors-polite, confident, and fully engaged as they enjoyed the shared education experience alongside their friends from St Bernard’s.

Christmas time at Knockbreda Nursery 🌟🎄

We have all enjoyed a lovely Christmas time at Knockbreda. We had a visit from Ellie the Elf. We then had a fireplace singalong in front of our mummies and daddies. Then we had some activities after our singalong to have fun with our mummies and daddies. Last but not least we had a very special visit from Santa Claus! 🎄🌟🎅
