Turn the clock back 50 years and take a look at these pictures of secondary school life in the 1970s.
The amazing images, from the Evening News archives, give a glimpse of day-to-day school activities, including some perhaps surprising ones - like pupils who built their own sailing dinghy - but also special occasions like a Roya visit, founder’s day and a Christmas pantomime staged by teachers.
And there are landmark occasions like the first girls to be admitted to a previously all-boys school and the last day before another school closed.
