Yr 12 at Bloomfields Shopping Centre
Our current Year 12 pupils went to Bloomfields Shopping Centre on Thursday 2nd February to represent our school in the Regional Team Programme Trade Fair as part of Young Enterprise.
Our pupils set up their stalls showing the brilliant products they had designed, marketed and now were hoping to sell to the public.
The pupils were also interviewed by special guests (including Jim Eastwood from the BBC's Apprentice)about their products and how they manufactured and produced them.
We are so proud of our Year 12 pupils who won the Team Award in the competition and did our school proud. A special mention must go to Mrs Davey who helped them achieve this fabulous award. Well Done Year 12!!!!!

Wrights Recycling
On Wednesday 22nd February 2012 Yr 8 and Yr 9 pupils visited Wrights Recycling plant in Newtownards. The pupils were welcomed by staff at Wrights and given a delicious snack before having a tour around the recycling plant. The pupils got to see all different types of materials being recycled and batched up ready to be deilvered to different countries around the world.
The pupils thoroughly enjoyed this trip as it was extremely interesting and allowed them to see how everyday items are recycled and reused.
Each pupil also got some goodies to take home and keep. Thankyou to the staff at Wrights for a brilliant school visit!

Didn't they do well?
Congratulations to the girls and boys cross country teams who both won their inter schools competition this week. This is the first time the school has ‘done the double’ and we are all extremely proud. Two pupils deserve a special mention for their individual performances Megan McDonald who finished second in her race and Mason McClure who finished first. Well done!
We also have to give a big thanks to Mrs Curry for her superb coaching and endless support! Ta.
