Wellbeing Week
All pupils were involved recently in activities to promote wellbeing in our school and in our lives generally. Keep an eye out for photos on our Instagram account. The handle is ballylinanns .

School Tours
These will take place in the summer term as usual. We are doing our best to keep costs down, though we are reminding you now so that you can budget well in advance for the expense.

The ‘Offer a Home’ programme is being managed by local authorities on behalf of Government to support use of properties that are not currently in use to those fleeing war in Ukraine who need a safe and secure place to stay. Tap here for more information .
