Pupils from year 13 and 14 represented the school at the International Peace day event in St. Paul’s, Bessbrook on 21st September 2016. "Amazing Space" brought together 3,500 young people from schools across Northern Ireland at the Eikon Exhibition Centre, Maze / Long Kesh to celebrate their role in peace building. The event included erformances from local talent, as well as international contributions from across the globe, through a range of international partners including Generation Global, The Global Peace Foundation and The United Nations.

Alongside the main event at the Eikon Centre, ‘Amazing the Space’ established a number of satellite venues across Northern Ireland enabling an additional 2,000 pupils to participate in local events, via live video streaming.

Organised to coincide with the UN International Day of Peace, this event was an opportunity for our young people to share their vision for a peaceful society with young people living in other conflict areas around the world.
