Congratulations to our Year 9 & 10 Eco-Group

May 21, 2018

Congratulations to our Year 9 & 10 Eco-Group members who recently came runners up in the Wrigley’s Bin-It competition. This is a whole UK competition, which challenges young people to spread the message about keeping their area litter free. This group created an assembly, which they delivered to the year 10s, with a clear message about the cost of litter to our school.

As a result, the students won £250 in vouchers for the omniplex cinema, and they are treating their form classes to a cinema trip this week. Missing from the photo is Tiernan Lynch and Jack Smith.

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.
