St Brigid's College

Education Minister @paulgivan was on the road today visiting schools including @KillowenPS @StBrigidsDerry and Holy Child Primary School. The Minister toured the schools, enjoyed music performances and met with Principals, staff and pupils. He also engaged in useful discussions on a range of areas including accommodation needs and specialist provision.

Our P7 pupils had a great morning at St Brigid’s College with some really engaging practical activities. @StBrigidsDerry

Zara McCallion & Marcas Ó Mianáin, Year 14 students at St Brigid's College in #Derry speaking to @irish_news at the @NewIrelandComm school engagement event in the city today. Zara said the most important part of the event for her was "talking about what our future holds after we get our degrees, how are we going to get housing, a job, what opportunities are going to be here for us here in Derry." Marcas said: "I thought it was good they are looking to build on our university in Derry, to give us more opportunity to study degrees in the area."
