St Paul’s and Newtownhamilton students take flight for PEACE!

 Pupils from St Paul’s and Newtownhamilton High School along with Newtownhamilton High School teacher, Mr David Sloan and Gerry Hughes from Sentinus.

On Friday 7th of October, Year 10 pupils from St Paul’s High School, Bessbrook and Newtownhamilton High School, participated in an Engineering Day with Science and Technology company, Sentinus. The theme of the day was flight.

The pupils worked in mixed groups, designing and building various types of flying machines.

This activity was part of the PEACE (Partnership, Education and community Enrichment) Initiative set up by the Shared Education Programme.

This programme aims to encourage school to make cross-sectoral collaborations an integral part of school life, creating enhanced educational and personal development opportunities for everyone involved.
