• Cystic Fibrosis Challenge was a great success. Thank you!

  Sun 24 Feb 2019

  During the last week of Term one, we did a fund raiser for Cystic Fibrosis in memory of Mr Stephen Clarke, daddy to Lucy in P4 and Simon in the Nursery.

  Stephen died last year of Cystic Fibrosis. He believed in the power of exercise and that everyone can do exercise despite age or disability.

  Each class completed 20 minutes of exercise. Pupils really enjoyed this activity and parents donated very generously. To date we have raised £1821. Thanks again parents for your amazing generosity.

  The cheque will be presented to a representative from Cystic Fibrosis at the end of January.

  

• NI Road Safety Quiz

  Sat 23 Feb 2019

  Four pupils from St. Ita's, Caitlin, Eoin, John and Aran  took part in the Lisburn and Castlereagh area heat of the NI Primary Schools Road Safety quiz which was held at the Lisburn Leisureplex before mid-term break.. 

   

  The quiz consisted of seven rounds of eight questions plus an extra round on road signs. The road safety questions were mostly aimed at pedestrians, cyclists, the use of seat belts, crossing the road and the proper use of pedestrian crossings.

   

  Caitlin, Eoin, John and Aran did so well and came third in the heat, only missing out on second place by the narrowest of margins. Unfortunately this meant that they were unable to participate in the next round of the quiz. 

   

  However, they did so well and everyone at St. Ita's are so proud of their achievement. They represented St. Ita's so well.
