Our new Year 8 students had a fantastic opportunity to explore the wide range of extra-curricular activities available during today's Slemish+ Fayre.

From sports, creative arts and special interest groups, students met staff, asked questions and signed up for activities.

It was a wonderful way to end their first full day, helping them make new friends, discover new talents and become fully involved in school life.

Well done to our Sixth Form Drama student, Georgia, who spent part of her summer taking part in the Bruiser Theatre Company Summer School.

This fantastic programme brings together talented young performers from across Northern Ireland, and Georgia threw herself into two weeks of creativity and hard work, finishing with a brilliant showcase performance.

Well done, Georgia. It’s wonderful to see our students pursuing their passions and developing their craft beyond the classroom. 🎭✨
