Congratulations to our PTA for successfully applying for the Tesco's Fruit & Veg Grant Programme. Please share with as many folks as possible so we have an army of people collecting blue tokens in Carrickfergus Extra and Larne Express from Monday 3rd August until the end of November. Adding to our outdoor equipment this year will compliment our new playground markings which are looking great! Even during the summer holidays projects are ongoing. We can't wait to share some pictures!

School finishes tomorrow at 12 Noon (Tuesday 30th)! We would like to wish everyone in our school community a lovely summer break! We hope the sun shines and everyone safely returns at the end of August! 🥰🌞

'Parting is such sweet sorrow!'

We are so sorry to be saying goodbye to Mrs Fitzsimmons who has been a P1 Classroom Assistant at the Model for over 25 years! What an incredible service to education and our school. 'Thank you' just isn't enough to express our gratitude and how much we will miss you on our Model team. We wish you all the very best with the next chapter in your retirement. May it be filled with good health and happiness! ❤️

It was the perfect ending to a perfect day at the Share Centre as cooling off in the water was a must! 🌅🤽‍♀️
