HBN provides positive environment for learning
A new school in Douglas has been praised for having the 'wow factor' by a former head teacher.
Jill Gill says her old school, Ballacloan Infants, was restricted by its size and the extra space at Henry Bloom Noble Primary is great for pupil's learning.
The education centre was officially opened by education and children minister Graham Cregeen earlier this week (Thurs 5 Jan).
Mrs Gill spoke to former pupils of Ballcloan, who say they 'love' the new school, particularly the outside sports area.
The ex-head says the positive environment at the new school leaves a lasting impression:
