💜 Help Us Secure a Safe School Crossing! 💚

We’ve been working hard for years to get a safe pedestrian crossing outside the school, but previous applications haven’t been successful. Following Mr Spillane’s recent letter, the Parents Council is relaunching our campaign - and we need your support.

👉 Our first target: 1,000 petition signatures.

Every signature counts. Please take a moment to sign using the link below and share it with friends, family and neighbours who want safer access for our children.

Please note: After signing, you may see a page asking for a donation. We are not seeking donations. Just close the page - your signature is already recorded.

Thank you for helping us push for a safer journey to school for every child at Loughview Integrated.

Look how much we've raised so far this year - all thanks to our amazing school community! Thank you to everyone who has donated, supported, volunteered and shown up - it truly makes a difference 💚💜

We’re now within reach of our £5,600 target 🎯. This will buy one iPad for every classroom. The school will benefit greatly from additional devices, so every contribution helps us get closer to our goal.

If you'd like to get involved, please join our volunteer group - DM your class rep.
