If you seek truth you will not seek victory by dishonorable means,
and if you find truth you will become invincible.
Best of luck to all students receiving their Junior Certificate/Cycle results today.
Badminton Success:
The senior boys’ team of Adam Dunne, Andrew McNally, Nathan Clarke and Kelvin McNally, have had a remarkable run this year, beating schools from all over the province. The boys beat a very strong Royal Belfast Academical Institution Team and won the Ulster A Cup for the first time in the school’s history. Well done Mr. McHugh and Team!
