Galgorm has been transformed into a magical enchanted garden to welcome our wonderful class of 2024.

Congratulations to Ray Tully-Mayne (12T) who won two gold medals, one silver medal and a bronze medal in Brazilian Jujitsu last weekend. Well done!

A reminder that school is CLOSED tomorrow, 18th January due to the public sector strike which includes all teaching and non-teaching unions, transport workers and many other public sector services.

An update on school bus services this morning:

Rural routes that are not gritted are in dangerous condition due to the overnight snow and frost, the following areas are affected:
