At LGS we encourage students to use their voices for the greater good and speak out on issues important to them. The newly formed Current Affairs Society gives students a place to express their opinions and views on matters… well, that matter!
Chess Club
“Chess is the gymnasium of the mind”.
― Blaise Pascal.
LGS Chess Club is one of the most popular clubs with all ages competing against each other and often a 45 minute lunch is not long enough to win that all important game. Photographs are quickly taken so the game can be reset to play again the following lunchtime.
Scripture Union
It was a busy year at 180 with plenty of visiting speakers and some after school events.
We welcomed Chris Cunningham, Daniel Peters, Andrew Ritchie, Chris Boucher and Rachel Miller (SU E3 Worker) who all lead different sessions on faith, the Bible and living as a Christian today.
Year 12 Coffee Morning
Year 12 pupils organised a coffee morning in aid of MacMillan Cancer Support and Angel Wishes. A total of £700 was raised, and split between both charities.

True Colours Exhibitions Visit 2023
In February our GCSE and AS level classes visited the True Colours Exhibition at the Ulster Museum in Belfast. We were able to see the incredible work of GCSE and A level pieces and gather inspiration.
We were able to witness techniques and media that we may have never thought of trying out before
Terex Female Workwear Competition
At the beginning of February, two classmates and myself were selected during the shortlisting process by Terex to represent Limavady Grammar School. We were tasked to design a new workwear for woman in the industry which was a more comfortable fit for the female form.
