Supporting children online can feel challenging, especially as the digital world continues to change.

To help families support children and young people online the Safeguarding Board for Northern Ireland have made a series of short online safety mini webinars available, with topics covering privacy settings, group chats and peer pressure, online bullying, image sharing, harmful content and online grooming.

Each session is around 15-20 minutes long, easy to follow, and includes tips, conversation starters and signposting to further support.

🎉 Congratulations to our Year 11 Dream Space Ambassadors! 🎉

A huge well done to all of our Year 11 Dream Space Ambassadors who recently received their Gold Award at a special graduation celebration held at the W5 Innovative Centre.

Throughout the year, our ambassadors have shown outstanding commitment by completing a series of workshops and delivering engaging sessions to Year 9 students. Along the way, they have developed valuable leadership, communication and teamwork.

Their hard work, dedication and enthusiasm have been truly impressive, and they should be incredibly proud of this fantastic achievement.

It was wonderful to see their success recognised and celebrated, and everyone had a brilliant day marking the occasion.

👏 Well done to each and every one of you – we are very proud of all that you have accomplished!

It was a pleasure for Mrs Jackson to attend the 10th anniversary concert of the North Belfast Youth Choir at Carlisle Memorial Church last night.

Chemistry Trip to Queen’s University for Salters’ Discovery Day Thursday 28th May

Our top year 11 scientists recently stepped into a real university environment at Queen's University Belfast for an inspiring Salters' Discovery Day. The highlight of the trip was a hands-on lab experiment where the students successfully synthesized their very own Aspirin, turning raw chemicals into lifesaving medicine.

Stepping into the university’s state-of-the-art chemistry laboratories, the students traded their usual school benches for professional-grade glassware, Bunsen burners, and digital scales. Guided by university staff and experts from the Salters' Institute, the young chemists put their theoretical knowledge to the test to synthesize acetylsalicylic acid—more commonly known as Aspirin.
