Education Minister, Mr Peter Weir visited Moneyrea Primary School today. The Minister was greeted on arrival by Hugo, the school's mascot. At the welcome assembly Minister Weir was treated to performances by Moneyrea's choir, talented musicians, a Highland Fling and a lively Hip Hop display.
After assembly, the Minister was taken on a tour of the school, visiting each class and chatting with the staff and pupils.
Everyone at Moneyrea Primary School would like to thank Minister Weir for taking time out of his busy schedule to visit the school. Photos of the visit can be seen below.
The Governors and Staff of Moneyrea Primary School were saddened to learn of the passing of former Moneyrea Principal, Mr Hugh Thompson.
Hugh Thompson was the school's first Principal, back in 1961, when the Lyttle Memorial School closed.
He is fondly remembered by many in the village, who now have families of their own. He was an inspiration to his colleagues and his students, leading them by example.
Hugh loved local history, and published a booklet about Moneyreagh , which is still used today, when our children are finding out about their village.
After his retirement Hugh maintained a keen interest in how his wee school was getting on, and took special delight in hearing of new building work and increased enrolment.
His memory will continue to be celebrated in our inter-house sports, between, Thompson, Redpath and Stewart.
Fondly remembered and deeply respected by all who knew him, a memorial service will be held at 2.00pm this Sunday in Moneyreagh Community Centre.
