At Ballymena Means, we know how important teachers and school staff are to our local primary schools. From teachers and classroom assistants to principals, caretakers, dinner staff and office teams,

there are so many people who help make school a happy, supportive and inspiring place to be!

So we want you to tell us why your teacher or school staff member deserves a special thank you this year!
