A new sports facility has opened at Belfast High School in Newtownabbey, Co Antrim.
The new facilities include a sports hall, a fitness suite, a synthetic turf playing area and a drama studio.
The facility was established after funding was received through the School Enhancement Project (SEP).
Education Minister, Peter Weir, said he was "very impressed" with the facility.
He said: "Ongoing investment in our schools estate is essential and projects such as this will help in the drive to improve the school environment and create a better place for pupils to learn and flourish."
Lynn Gormley (Principal) and Charlotte Weir (Acting Principal) said: "This is certainly a day of great celebration for the whole school community. Many new opportunities will now be available for our pupils because of these state of the art 21st century facilities."
