Thorp Arch!

What a fantastic day our students had at Thorp Arch!

‍

We had the pleasure of being joined by Leeds United players Noah Okafor and James Justin to celebrate Black History Month.

Our students enjoyed a tour of the fantastic facilities and even had the opportunity to play football at the very same training ground where the Leeds United teams train!

A real highlight of the day was when Rita, Maimuna and Praise shared a powerful poem exploring some of the challenges that Black people may face. Their words were incredibly moving, and Noah and James were thoroughly impressed.
