Black History Month

Under the umbrella of our ‘Trinity Together’ initiative, we have been celebrating Black History Month during October. Assemblies have been led by Ms Ripley (Lead Practitioner: Diversity Equality and Inclusion), Mr Dennis (Pastoral Tutor) and Mr Pritchard (Course Director of KS3 History). We also had a poetry quiz in the LRB last week. Students were invited to take part by reading poems by black poets, and answering a series of questions. Congratulations to the following students who scored a fantastic 10/10!

• Year 7 – Brian, Ayomide, Jacob, Honour and Gabriel.
• Year 8 – Aleksandra and Rennee.

Other ways we are celebrating Black History Month (BHM) in school include:

• A BHM inspired book recommendations list for students, compiled by teacher of English, Ms Burton.
• BHM displays around the school, that are linked to individual departments and black Mancunians.
• A range of resources available for students through Show My Homework.
