Over the last five years, we have developed our extensive grounds into a place for children to explore, learn and grow as they play at break and lunchtime and take part in activities across the curriculum, whatever the weather. In 2018 we were awarded the prestigious TOPS Awards for the play offered at our school. We are one of a small number of Primary Schools in Northern Ireland to achieve this award and Central is recognised as a primary school of excellence for the play we provide for our pupils.

This year some pupils are also participating in a series of Forest School lessons as our school is working towards attaining Forest School status.

With outdoor learning as an integral part of our curriculum, we hope to develop a lifelong love of the outdoors within our pupils.
