EDL eTwinning project

January 26, 2018

Congratulations to our Year 8, 9 and 10 pupils who took part in our EDL eTwinning project in September and October this academic year!
We received our first quality label based on their hard work. As part of the project pupils wrote post cards in French and Spanish and sent them to schools across Europe; as close as Derry and as far as Slovenia.
Pupils also participated in a mini Eurovision contest, which Year 9 students, Skye McClenaghan, Emma McCann and Maria McCamley won for St Paul’s. In addition pupils also explored links between all European languages compiling a list of keywords in all the languages, including Irish.

St Paul’s High School is a thriving, innovative educational community of almost 1500 students of all abilities, from children with learning difficulties in our Learning Support Centre to high calibre academic achievers in our AS, A2 and Applied Post-16 courses. All classrooms are equipped as standard with interactive whiteboards, and students and staff are encouraged to make the fullest use of technology for learning and teaching.

The school, which was established in 1966 with the aim of providing its pupils with a Christian education within the Catholic ethos, is situated on a modern campus in pleasant rural surrounding in the townland of Carrickbracken, County Armagh. St Paul’s High School was designated by the Department of Education as a Specialist College for Science in 2008, and the school was awarded the BECTA ICT Mark in 2009.
