Keystage 3
All pupils in Years 8-10 study either French, German or Spanish – in Year 8 the pupils have the opportunity to experience all three during
two 45 minute periods each week.
Keystage 4
At Keystage 4 pupils prepare for GCSE during 4 45-minute periods. We are fortunate to use the services of three foreign-language assistants – one from each country.
Language trips are arranged every two years, one to each country, for years 9-11. These trips are invaluable, as the children experience at first-hand the way of life and food and customs of the country.

| School Opening - Thursday, March 19, 2009Year 10 pupils win a product development competition, organised by the University of Ulster
A group of Year 10 pupils entered a product development competition, organised by the University of Ulster and judged by Jenny Bristow. Thirty one teams were entered, from a large number of schools in Northern Ireland. Our pupils had a brainstorming session and decided on a product containing popcorn, and made a sponge cake, loaded with chocolate, popcorn and marshmallows!!! Yum! Yum!
The team were successful in winning the competition and received fantastic prizes such as an individually designed chefs whites, a day in Jenny’s kitchen (where she records her television programme), a day at W5 and a flight round Northern Ireland in a jet. Congratulations to Loren Kincaid, Emma Smallwoods, Jonathan Campbell and Jamie Leslie. Well done! |
