Our Lady of Lourdes School Ballymoney
 

WELCOME

Our Lady of Lourdes School ethos enables us to give children an education and a belief that they are beautiful as a child of God. As a community we strive to do little things with great love realising that no single act of love will ever be lost.

The school continues to attract pupils from across the ability range. Boys and girls of all abilities are thriving in our distinct small-school ethos and in our vision of enabling each individual pupil to bring light and dignity to the world – no child held back nor left behind.

We are proud of our pupils; their appearance, their conduct, their respect for themselves, others and for the school property. These are all sources of great encouragement in the present day and bring hope for the future.

📚 World Book Day 📚 At OLOL, reading for pleasure plays a vital role in helping young people grow as confident, curious, and creative learners. When students choose to read simply because they enjoy it, they strengthen their imagination, develop empathy, expand their vocabulary, and build the literacy skills that support success across every subject. On World Book Day, Year 8’s took that joy one step further with our Reading for Pleasure Challenge—inviting students to read in the most unique and unexpected places around the school. From cosy corners and stairwells to science labs and sports halls, our Year 8’s embraced the challenge with enthusiasm and humour. The photos captured along the way show not only the fun we had, but also the shared love of stories that brings us together. ⚫️🔴⚫️🔴
