Willowbridge in Enniskillen has been waiting 18 months for its new school building to be complete.

This will be the first time all of the teachers and students are working under one roof following the amalgamation of the Erne and Elmbrook schools in 2012.

An estimate of £4 million pounds work has been done to the massive extension in the Lendrum building.

State of the art facilities have now been brought to the school and are suitable to cater for students who may need special attention or with physical disabilities.

All rooms are bright and colorful with interactive boards in each class for the pupils.

There is also a mini flat in the school with a bedroom, living room, kitchen, utility and a bathroom. This is to help students learn life skills for inside and outside of the classroom and teach them to live independent life.

The school is now functioning and only left with minor finishing touches.
