FMT College prides itself with strong community links. This was borne out last night when four staff members graced the catwalk in Corick House Hotel and Spa to raise funds for two charities Air Ambulance Northern Ireland and Zest - Healing The Hurt of Self-harm and Su***de. They modelled outfits from RoaleX. It certainly was a show of high end fashion modelled with sophistication, elegance and poise. Also pleasing was the presence of five senior students selling raffle tickets. Augher WI (Women's Institutes of Northern Ireland) is extremely grateful to the staff and students for giving up their evening for such worthy causes. 👏👏👏

🏑West of Ulster hockey League 🏑

Our U14s had an impressive start to the West Ulster Hockey League campaign at home to ERGS yesterday.

After a goalless first half, ERGS took the lead with a breakaway goal. But the girls never gave up💪 Olivia M kept the penalty corner alive, before Jessica B finished with just 1 minute left to secure a 1–1 draw! 🙌

A friendly period was played thereafter, where Eva D and Mia K scored to give us a 2–0 win! 🎉

🌟 Player of the Match: Jessica B🌟

Our senior girls also took on ERGS in a fantastic, high-intensity friendly!

ERGS took the lead in the first third, despite Fivemiletown creating several chances. The second third was another evenly matched battle, with both teams working hard💪

In the final third, Eden D found Anna B at the back post, who finished brilliantly to make it 1–1🙌

🌟 Player of the Match: Molly C🌟

Thanks to ERGS for the competitive fixtures, and best wishes for the rest of the season👏🏑

This morning we welcomed Mrs Glenda Jones and Mr Andrew Gordon to present "Good News For Everyone" Bibles to our Year 8 pupils! Glenda shared with our youngest pupils how she was a pupil at our school and then became a teacher here, relying on the Bible to guide her through life! Andrew read from Psalm 119 how God's Word is a lamp for our feet and a light for our path. Wise words for our young people as they navigate their way through secondary school and grow up learning to find truth and hope.
Huge thanks to Glenda, Andrew and all at Good News For Everyone for this gift to our Year 8. 📖 ❤️

Learning beyond the classroom.🐓🐴🌱🐄
Our Year 11 and 12 Agriculture students recently visited Mrs McCarroll’s dairy farm to gain firsthand experience of animal husbandry and welfare in practice. Using the Five Freedoms as a framework, students explored how the welfare needs of livestock are met.
During the visit, pupils took part in a range of practical activities, including feeding cattle and hens, body condition scoring livestock, and caring for young calves. This work provided valuable insight into the daily responsibilities of livestock management.
A huge thank you to Mrs McCarroll for sharing her knowledge, expertise and farm with our students. It was a very engaging and memorable learning experience for all.

What can your children do on a Tuesday afternoon? Why not go to Egypt and see some camels and pyramids! As part of our Code & Design Club we're aiming to build an Egyptian Experience in Minecraft, so some research was required via our VR headsets. 🐪
This is just one of our after-school activities which are all running as planned. Also on today was our After School Support Club, for any who need a helping hand with homework. 🍎
Tomorrow we have Lunchtime Scripture Union, and after school Support Club, Junior Boys Football and Junior Girls Netball. 📖 ✝ 📚 ⚽ 🏀
