Our Head Boy, Head Girl and deputies were pleased to accept the invitation to attend the Leadership Lunch organised by their counterparts at Slemish College in Ballymena.

We were warmly welcomed and had the opportunity to hear from a variety of speakers giving advice and provoking thought on the topic of becoming a young leader in today’s society. Working in groups with other pupil leaders, we had the opportunity to network and share ideas. The afternoon concluded in group presentations, with Ballyclare Secondary young leaders stepping up to the podium to present to the assembled group of almost 100 of their peers. Thanks to Slemish College for this memorable opportunity and their kind hospitality!

On Friday 22 November we welcomed Charlotte and Shannon from the charity ‘Chest Heart and Stroke’ to school. They presented very thought provoking sessions to years 9, 10, 11 and 12 on the risks of vaping and provided advice on sources of support for anyone interested in information on stopping.
