Success Celebrated at Annual Speech & Prize Night 2023

Success Celebrated at Annual Speech & Prize Night 2023

Thursday 28 September 2023 marked the official date for Ulidia Integrated College’s Annual Speech and Prize Night.  Staff, Board of Governors, invited guests and parents joined the prize winners to share in the success and achievements of pupils for the year 2022/2023.

We were honoured to have Miss Tuesday Howe as our guest speaker this year.  Miss Howe was a past pupil and head girl of Ulidia Integrated College in 2010/2011, she is currently working as an English Teacher and Head of Year in Priory Integrated College.  She was the lead mentor in her English Degree course in QUB for the school of English and is currently part of the CS Lewis Institute Fellows Program in Stranmillis. 

We were inspired by her words of inspiration and her passion for English.  She spoke of how ‘Ulidia remains with you even when you leave school, in your thoughts, your decisions and how you treat others; that today will soon be your yesterday so enjoy every moment, grasp every opportunity and be the best you can be.’ Congratulations to all!
