Northern Ireland100

2021 marks Northern Ireland's centenary.  As an integrated school, we feel it's important to learn about our country's past and all of it's important history and shared culture.
We had a cultural day with some workshops on Ulster Scots.

We had a visit from Sophie Kirtley, who launched her book "Our Wee Place" at Hazelwood IPS.  Sophie is a past pupil of Hazelwood IPS.  She wrote her book to celebrate Northern Ireland's centenary.
