The senior football team travelled to Holm Park to take part in the inter school football blitz on Thursday 17th April. The team got off to the best possible start winning their first four games and drawing the final match to end the blitz unbeaten and top of the league. There were outstanding skills and teamwork a plenty in the Lisanally team but the goal celebrations were on a different level with all players having the perfect celebration after they scored. This was a really enjoyable day for the team and a great opportunity to mix with pupils from Rathore, Sperrinview and Donard.

The EYP and Primary pupils enjoyed our Easter themed play day on Monday 25th March. There was a variety of inviting and fun sensory trays set out for the pupils to explore; with the most popular ones being the colourful water beads and the delicious smelling chocolate flour. This was a lovely opportunity for the pupils to engage with Easter resources such as chicks, lambs, bunnies and eggs. All the play opportunities also had cross-curriculum links.

Our VTU classes participated in the Young Enterprise Rushmere Trade Fair, this links with our Rights Respecting School Article 15.

VTU 1 had the responsibility of selling all products from both classes and worked so hard as a team to set up our beautiful Trade Fair stall at Rushmere Shopping Centre. Across our two VTU classes we made two products. VTU 1 created ‘You Can Grow Your Own Way’ flowerpots. VTU 2 created ‘Pebble Made’ products including painted stones and pebble box frames for friends, family and loved ones. We had a very special customer - the Lord Mayor! He loved asking us about our products and congratulated us on working so hard. VTU 2 visited our Trade Fair stand to see all our beautiful products and watch VTU1 sell our items to the public. They loved visiting other stalls to see what other schools had made. Our products completely sold out and we made an impressive £350 profit on all our sales!

We are so proud of everything we have achieved, and we were delighted to receive the ‘Runner Up Team Company’ Award, well done everyone!

In November we were delighted to be able to open our doors and welcome family and friends to visit the school during an Open Day/Evening. We were delighted with the response of parents and friends who came to see all that we do here in Lisanally. Having not been able to host visitors, it was important that we were able to showcase all that we have to offer and to be able to put faces to the names. It was a very successful and useful event for all involved.
