Last week we looked at key Anti-Bullying messages. We brightened our Friday 17th November with many pupils, across in all year groups, putting on their odd socks. Staff across the school joined in too to support the message that our individuality and diversity is something to be celebrated! Ms Oliver’s dog, Lexi, even joined in rocking odd socks at home!
The Year 8 Hockey team played another round of the East Antrim League beating Glengormley Integrated 6-0! Lexie Fellowes scored four goals and Carys Hollyoak scored two! Some super hockey was played, especially from our forward Ruby Lewis who assisted every goal! Well done to Mrs Hall’s superstars!

The U14 team won against a spirited Cullybackey College side! The game included some fine individual performances including Riley Hoy leading from the front making tackle after tackle (top defender) and also a second half hat trick from Alfie Cartwright (top attacker) who could even have had a fourth if not for a fantastic covering tackle. Our overall player of the match Lee McGookin played very well in both attack and defence including scoring a try from his own twenty two metre line!
