This week Alba, our Roots of Empathy baby and mini teacher, came to visit Y5 for the third time ๐คฑ The boys and girls couldn't believe how much she has grown and developed.

The cross which welcomed all who visited St Anne's PS Donagadee is now welcoming all who visit our school and proudly hangs in our Reception area - gifted by Principal Mr Hennessy โค๏ธ I felt it was important to recognise and remember the service given by St Anne's over the years to the Parish and the Bangor Parish Family of Schools.
