A New Chapter Begins – Our Assembly Hall Reopens

14th Oct 2025

We were delighted to welcome pupils, staff, governors, and special guests on Thursday 9th October for the official opening of our newly refurbished School Assembly Hall. This event marked a joyful milestone in our school’s journey following the damage caused by Storm Eowyn.

The refurbished hall now features upgraded lighting, sound systems, stage enhancements, and improved facilities throughout the school. Guests enjoyed beautiful piano performances by Dr Ryan—thanks to a generous donation from Ulster University—and a touching rendition of Count on Me by our school choir.

We are incredibly proud of our pupils and staff, whose resilience and creativity ensured school life continued smoothly during the refurbishment. Special thanks go to the EA Maintenance Team and contractors for their tireless work and collaboration.

We look forward to many years of learning, celebration, and community in this renewed space
