We have launched our golden tie initiative in school this month. One child in each class will receive the golden tie based on living the RATHLIN values. September’s winners were June and Oscar.
Today we launched a new initiative with Ballycastle Credit Union who gave every pupil in our school a special goody bag. Thank you also to the Credit Union for the kind donation to the school.
Pupils had lots of fun celebrating Roald Dahl 2023. In the lower class, pupils had to investigate how to clean Charlie's lucky penny and in the older class pupils used oil pastels, paint and tissue paper- all in one piece- to recreate their favourite character from any Roald dahl book.
We welcomed back our pupils to the new academic year for 2023/24 with a wellbeing day. The focus of the day was drama. Pupils were put into groups and had to learn and perform a magic trick of their choice for the rest of the school. A great way to start the school year.
We look forward to welcoming back all pupils on Friday 1st September. This will be the first of our wellbeing days. Please see attached poster for more information.
On Wednesday the school community came together to celebrate the successes we have had this academic year. Well done to all pupils on a highly successful school year.

Pupils had their annual end of year trip on Wednesday 21st June. We travelled to ‘Leisure World’ in Redcastle Co. Donegal where pupils could have a go on a variety of activities including dodgem cars, hovercraft and soft play arena. We would like to thank Stephen, John and Ruth from the Rural Housing Association who paid for and facilitated the hire of the coach from Ballycastle to Redcastle and to Rathlin Ferry company who provided free ferry transport on the Kintra for everyone on this trip. A great day, with lots of memories, was had by all.
