Welcome

Welcome to Strabane Academy!

It is with great pride that I welcome you to our school website. I am truly honoured to serve as the new Principal of Strabane Academy.

I hope that as you explore these pages, you gain a clear sense of our commitment to the holistic development of every student in our care.

At Strabane Academy we offer a broad and balanced curriculum designed to nurture the unique strengths and talents of each individual pupil. Beyond the classroom, our students benefit from the wide range of enriching opportunities - from sports and music to educational visits, Scripture Union, and the Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, to name just a few.

Photos from Strabane Academy's post What a morning at Hard as Oak! 💪
Mud, sweat, determination (and maybe a few sore legs tomorrow! 😅), our students and staff tackled every challenge with incredible resilience and a fantastic attitude.
Plenty of grit, lots of smiles, and an amazing team spirit on display from start to finish. We couldn’t be prouder of everyone who took part.
Hard as Oak? Absolutely! 👏

Photos from Strabane Academy's post A fantastic evening at Stormont on Wednesday night as Eloise and Katie proudly collected foundation certificates, Ulster Scots Piping! 🎶
They are taught by our very talented Bagpipe tutor, Ivor Laird in association with the Ulster Scots Agency. We are very lucky to have availed of this partnership to provide lessons in school. Such a brilliant achievement, we are so proud of all the hard work and dedication that’s gone into this. Well done to you both! 👏✨

Photos from Strabane Academy's post 💙🏆 A fantastic achievement for Strabane Academy pupils Holly and Sophie-Rose!
Congratulations to Holly and Urney St. Columba’s U14 Ladies on completing a remarkable League and Championship Double.
Having helped her team secure the Championship title last week, Holly followed up that success by lifting the Grade 5 U14 League trophy last night, a brilliant achievement and a testament to the hard work, commitment and dedication shown throughout the season. 👏
A special mention also goes to fellow Strabane Academy pupil Sophie-Rose. Although unfortunately unable to take part in the league final, Sophie-Rose played a key role throughout the campaign and made a significant contribution to the team’s success.
Well done girls — a fantastic achievement to be proud of! 💙🏆
