At the end of June, Carrick's Downshire School will close its doors after 40 years of invaluable contribution to hundreds of young people's lives.

Under the leadership of first principal Maurice Jackson - and subsequent heads - Downshire has played an important role as a community school, since its opening in 1978.

On Sunday, June 3, at 11.30, Ballycarry Presbyterian Church is holding a service to celebrate and give thanks for the school providing a good rounded education and caring service to the community.
