I came to St. Colman’s on the open day and the first
thing I saw was how lovely the teachers were. They
were kind and caring. My brother came here, he
keeps saying how much he loved the school. I really
love it here and it feels like the perfect fit for me. My
favourite subjects are Maths, Science and
Technology and I really enjoy theNetball and
Football after school clubs.
I attend St. Colmans High and Sixth Form College. I
chose this school as I’d heard amazing things from
people about it, and I’ve had lots of family
members come here, even my Mum! I love this
school because of its lovely teachers, friendly
students and kind and helpful classroom
assistants. Everyone is so nice here and I really feel
part of a family. I have made my best friends here
and I would recommend it to anyone.

Maya Singh, St. Patrick’s Primary School, Ballynahinch
I went to Drumlins Integrated Primary School and
I was thinking about 3 different choices for High
Schools. I went to St. Colman’s Open Day and The
Home Economics and Hair and Beauty
Departments really impressed me, as well as the
friendly staff. I’ve made great friends here and I
love my subjects and teachers.
So far I have found Year 8 fun and exciting. The first
few days I was anxious but realised quickly there
was nothing to worry about. I have made tons of
friends and met loads of kind and caring teachers.
I love Technology and Science and HE the most.
St. Colman’s is an amazing school and I really feel
welcome here.
Sophie Ferguson, Ballynahinch Primary School
Sofia McKelvey, Millennium Integrated Primary, Saintfield
I chose to come to St. Colman’s High and Sixth
Form College because of the Open Days. There
were lots of opportunities to have a look at the
school. The staff and teachers are very
welcoming and I knew this was the school for me.
When I joined I instantly knew I was in good hands,
this school has given me some forever friends and
a safe place to learn. I love the afterschool clubs and
my favourites are Netball and Badminton.
Hi, Im Sofia, I remember being so nervous at the
start of Year 8, but by the end of the first week
everything was brilliant! The staff and other
students were so nice. When I walked into
St. Colman’s it felt so classy and so happy.
I chose St. Colman’s after going to the Open Day- it
was definitely the best choice!
