College community observes Remembrance Day

This morning, the Shimna community came together for our annual Remembrance assemblies. In keeping with our integrated ethos, it was an opportunity for students and staff to reflect on the meaning of this occasion in a mutually respectful manner. Thank you also to the students who read poetry and performed musical items. At 11 o’clock on the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the bell rang to mark the beginning of a two-minute silence.

Thank you also to the students who represented Shimna at the Newcastle Centre on Sunday. We had the honour of meeting Deputy Lieutenant of the County, Noel Lamb, and appreciated his kind words.
