Clapping their friends off to secondary school

Clapping out at Our Lady

It's called a Clapping Out ceremony, and it ensures every one of them gets to say farewell with a cheer, a clap and a high five.

The ceremony was started by former headteacher Vince Burke and has become something of a tradition at Our Lady.

It involves the younger children lining the playing field while the outgoing Year 6s make their way through.Good luck to them all in Year 7!
