Year 9 take lessons in self-defence

A massive thank you to Gerald McAlister and his incredible team of black belts from Down Community Jujitsu Club for delivering introductory self-defence lessons to our Year 9. Students were taught self-defence techniques using a ‘hands-on approach’, gaining valuable skills on how to keep themselves and others safe.

It was also great to welcome back former student Alex McCartan as one of the team of demonstrators. Alex was working his way through the belts during his time at Shimna and it was wonderful to see him passing on his skills to the next generation.
