Awards for Maralin Primary
Staff and pupils at Maralin Village Primary School have a number of reasons to be celebrating.
The school has firstly received the Inclusive Practice Award from Families First.


The school was presented with their award at a ceremony at Titanic Exhibition Centre after being nominated in the Best Primary School category.
Princial Gillian Napier said: “Thank you to everyone who placed a comment on the Families First website.


“Those comments along with an evaluation visit to the school secured our prize, but I must say that just to read your comments was praise enough for myself.
“I was indeed humbled to read how highly we are thought of by parents and grandparents. We appreciate your support.”
The school has also been celebrating after recent successes at the Portadown Speech Festival.
The speech and drama group was placed first for The Sound Collector and The Rules that Rule the School.
