Take a walk down memory lane and see what has been happening at the Buick for over 100 years! If you have any pictures or stories about your time at the Buick please feel free to contact us and send in a picture or write us an email with some of your memories. The Buick which I started to attend in 1953 or 1954 was, of course, only a fraction of the size of a school building which it is today.
My memory is perhaps not as good as it should be, but I recall the front of the school being pretty much the same. However behind this there have been many changes. There used to be two wings, one of them single storey and the other with an upstairs. In all I think there were eight classrooms. There was quite an area of playground all around the school.

We really enjoy sharing our school and nursery unit with prospective parents at this time of the year. So, we have put together a snapshot of life at Buick and we hope that you enjoy the virtual tour and seeing some of our recent activities. The children are encouraged to give of their best in a welcoming environment where their individuality is recognised and their talents developed.
As the Acting Principal of Buick Memorial Primary School and Nursery unit, I am delighted to welcome you to our new school website. We hope that existing and prospective parents, carers, children, young people and friends of Buick will find the information within this website both helpful and informative.
Teachers value and need the co-operation and support of parents in all aspects of school life. They are available at a mutually convenient time to discuss any problems that may arise. We send home a weekly Thursday note to parents with additional notes attached and information is displayed on the external parents' notice board beside the rear door.
As we are situated in the heart of the village of Cullybackey, our school has always played an important role in the life of the village and surrounding area. We are closely linked through participation in local events and competitions and we work together with local groups. We take part in a range of community activities throughout the year and you will be kept informed of these on a regular basis.
The P.T.A. at Buick Memorial gives parents and teachers the opportunity to work alongside one another to raise funds for additional resources. It hopes to build upon relationships between staff, parents, pupils and the community as well as provide a variety of opportunities to enhance the pupils education and to support the school.
