We often have 'non-uniform' days in school so why not reverse the process and ‘wear our uniforms’ at home to raise money for our local NHS & Care Homes.

So on the 29th May, we are asking that all school-age pupils in your house ‘wear their uniform!’

Please donate a small amount using the just giving page... https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/school-uniform-day

100% of all money raised will go towards providing resources and equipment for our local NHS & Care Homes across Northern Ireland.

Many thanks for your support.

Happy Biodiversity Day!

In the simplest terms, biodiversity refers to the variety of life on Earth and is a combination of the words ‘biological’ and ‘diversity’. This includes every life form, be it plants, animals, fungi and even microorganisms like bacteria. The greater the variety of these life forms that live within a habitat or landscape, the more biodiverse that environment is.
