Well done to Mrs McCann, our Eco-Warrier and P6

On 16 Novembe 2011, Mrs McCann and her P6 class were invited to W5 for a free trip as part of the prize for being shortlisted down to the last 6 teachers and classes (out of over 600) in the Eco-School Awards 2011 sponsored by the Co-Operative.
Together they finished a final 4th place, which we are all really proud of.  They got to meet the Lord Mayor of Belfast and had their picture taken with him, so keep an eye out in the Belfast Telegraph soon….  Well done to Mrs McC and all of P6 for representing our school and doing so very well!  Keep up the good Eco-examples to us all!

GIPS Roadrunners cross the line in style for Integrated Education Fund

On Bank Holiday Mayday, a team from GIPS entered and completed the RiverRock Belfast Marathon Relay in a record-breaking time of 4 hours and 32 minutes.  This easily knocked over 15 minutes off the finish time from last year’s effort.  Well done to all involved for giving up your holiday in order to support the IEF who in turn do so much for our school.  We help them to help us!
Have a wee look at this clip of Mrs A as she strides across the finish line.  No guts no glory!! 😉

Glengormley Footballers take 2nd Place!

Our little football team took second place runners-up last week in a Newtownabbey Tournament held at the Valley Leisure Centre.
We were going really strong through all the games until we met our rivals Carnmoney PS in the last game.  Unfortunately on this occasion, things did not go our way!  The boys played really well and were commended on their team skills, individual skills and spirit.
We won two games, drew two and lost the final one.  We scored a hatful of goals along the way and had a lot of fun.
Here are some clips from the events to see how well they played.
