Making Positive Choices

Our recent Positive Choices event was organised and run in partnership with the Leeds United Foundation.  The full day event involved our Year 8 students and was extremely thought provoking.

We are grateful to the Leeds United Foundation, West Yorkshire Police and all who contributed to making the day such a great success.

The event was featured in the matchday programme for the recent Leeds United vs Middlesbrough game and the full article can be read here.

PSHCE Ambassadors Lead Health Fair Event

Our Year 10 PSHCE Ambassadors helped manage and organise another successful Health Fair.  This popular annual event involves our Year 9 students engaging in a wide range of health related matters through watching presentations from guest speakers to participating in workshops.  Mrs Thompson, PSHCE Co-ordinator was extremely proud of our ambassadors and in particular the impact that they had on visitors to the event.

‘The Yr 10 PSHE ambassadors were a massive help and a credit to the college. They were polite, friendly and I can see why they were picked for this role”. Craig McKenna Volunteer Manager

‘Congratulations on such a great day, so professionally run and organised. Your Year 10 helpers were brilliant”. J.Parry (Zumba Teacher)

The feedback from students as equally positive, with comments including:

“I now understand what domestic abuse means in a relationship”

‘I really enjoyed the Zumba session as it was fun and really raised my heart rate and made exercising enjoyable!’

In response to the event a number of Year 9 Students have volunteered for ‘Health Watch’ at the Fire Station and an RSE team can respond to the issues raised by students by addressing their needs in the curriculum.  We are already looking forward to next years event.
