We had a fabulous day at Weston-Super-Mare on Friday with our children and families. The sun shone and we simply had to get into that water! It was great to see everyone so relaxed and enjoying being together. A huge thank you to Mrs Caines and Mrs Puar for making it all happen!

Diversity Day
Today, it has been a real privilege to meet April Barrett MBE who came to talk to us about her work with the Dwarf Sports Association.
April and Hassan told us what like is like when you have dwarfism – all the things that can be tricky, but more importantly, all the things you can do really well if you try hard and don’t give up. In fact April became an Olympic Champion at Boccia and Hassan is an amazing football player.
Then we met Josh who told us what it is like for him having autism and ADHD. He had to overcome some real problems but it didn’t stop him becoming a champion archer.
Thank you so much to all our visitors for the day, from Birmingham Disability Sports; Aston Villa and some students from Wilson Stewart and Bishop Walsh schools. And a huge thank you to Andy Steed from Birmingham City Council who planned the day for us. We had an amazing time trying out lots of inclusive sports from Boccia and Archery to inclusive football and tennis ……and we even had a go at indoor fishing!
