Many Congratulations to Abi P7 and Luke Primary 5! 

Abi came first place in the Primary 7 Musical Performance Category in the Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council's 41st ANNUAL SCHOOLS’ ARTS COMPETITION. Abi was also invited to perform at the Gala Awards Ceremony. Abi's brother, Luke, came second in the Primary 5 category.

Miss Harney has created a complete resource pack for St Ita's Nature Trail. She presented it to our Eco Committee to give it a test run. Thank you Miss Harney for such a wonderful gift.

Mrs McKeown from our school office is moving on to new challenges in the world of work. We are incredibly sorry to see her go but happy that she is chasing her dreams. P7 pupils created some beautiful cards to present to her. Mrs Mckeown's two girls are pupils at St Ita's so she won't be a stranger!

The P7 pupils held their Award Ceremony this week. Congratulations to our Award winners and all of our fabulous P7 group. Good luck on your onward journey.
