Hi Everyone!
It’s great to be back and whilst the Mid Term break was very welcome, Spring is now approaching with new opportunities, brighter evenings and a quick step in our feet. I hope you all had a great rest and feel relaxed and re-energised.
It was a busy week however for Year 11, as they completed GCSE Modular Science Exams. For many of Year 11, this was a totally new experience, but I must commend them in their positive work ethic and attitude. Well done everyone – I’m sure the results will echo a similar message.
Commiserations to the Treanor Cup Team who fought hard against a strong St Mark’s Warrenpoint in the Quarter Final match. It is a great achievement to get to this point and I know they will refocus and regroup for next year. We continue to be proud of our young footballers, male and female.
Shared Educational activities are very prevalent between the College and Cookstown High School. This week, Deloitte delivered a very positive presentation to Year 13 about opportunities in the field of consultancy, finance, risk management, tax services etc – all very interesting.
Our Eco-Committee are well established now and yesterday they enjoyed a very informative visit to Lough Fea.
I had a brilliant meeting with some of our student council today as we discussed issues relevant to pupil progress and looking forward to September 2024.
We send our congratulations and best wishes to Year 9 pupil Conan as he lines out for Tyrone during the halftime match against Mayo tomorrow. We are so proud of you Conan, well done!
Don’t forget! It’s Assessment Week next week – a little extra revision never did anyone any harm.
Have a great weekend.
