What's Happening

Photos from Strabane Academy's post Strabane Academy u14 team for their season off to a great start with a comprehensible 33-10 victory over Foyle College. The home side hit their straps early registering 2 scores in the first 10 minutes and some very impressive rugby played despite it being their first game of the season. There scorers were, Reuben, Oliver, Max C, Max H and Harry. With Harry kicking 4 of the 5 conversion attempts. It’s was great to see all 23 boys get a good run out and contribute to such a positive team performance!

Logos Hope: World's 'largest floating book fair' docks in Belfast 🌟 Celebrating Past Pupil Success
We are delighted to see former Strabane Academy Head Girl, Hannah Gowdy, featured in a BBC News article about the arrival of the world’s largest floating book fair in Belfast! 📚🚢
Hannah now works with GBA Ships, the Christian organisation behind the Logos Hope, which brings books, knowledge and hope to communities around the world. Having first visited one of the organisation’s ships in Londonderry in 2004, Hannah has come full circle and is now helping to bring this incredible experience back to Northern Ireland.
What an inspiring journey from Head Girl to making a difference on an international stage! We are incredibly proud to see Hannah representing our local community and contributing to such a meaningful project. 💙
👏 Well done, Hannah! You are a fantastic example of where dedication, passion and a desire to make a difference can lead.

Photos from Strabane Academy's post St. Brigid’s Carnhill made the trip to Melvin in the u14 Northern Ireland Cup and returned to Derry empty handed. The Strabane Academy girls completing a solid 3-1 victory, with Mia registering a brace and Emily adding a third. This allows the girls progress to the next round. Special mention to Zara, who due to injury, donned the goalkeeping gloves producing an excellent display of handling and distribution.
We love how buzzing Mr Sargent is in his photo. 🤣

Photos from Strabane Academy's post Yesterday pupils in year 12 had the opportunity to attend the Future Pathways Careers Fair at the Melvin Sports Complex. Pupils were able to interact with many job sectors within the community, and learn about possible courses or study at Post 16. There was even some cheeky freebies too. 🙂
