Student Leaders enjoy celebration event at University of Oxford

A team of our Year 8 and 9 students enjoyed a special Celebration Day at St Anne’s College, University of Oxford to celebrate their completion of this year’s Social Action Programme.

Run by United Learning in partnership with the Dirt is Good Project, the programme challenges students across the Group’s academies and independent schools to develop and deliver their own social action project, for the benefit of their school, local or wider communities.

Since the programme’s launch in November our students have been hard at work carrying out a project to transform the outside space of the school as part of the Persil 'Dirt is Good' project with other schools.  We have cleared planters, swept, scraped and planned on how we can make our school a more pleasurable place to be.   We have some big plans that are sure to cause a buzz about school.

At the exciting Celebration Day our young leaders saw their excellent efforts celebrated when they presented their project to an audience of around 80 peers and teachers from across other participating schools. The team took to the stage with impressive confidence and enthusiasm and were excellent representatives of our school community.

During their trip, our students also got the opportunity to learn more about university life and what it means to be a student at the University of Oxford. The students enjoyed a special tour of the College as well as a taster lecture on Environmentalism.

Well done to all our students who engaged so wholeheartedly in this year’s programme and, through their project, have made such a real and positive difference to our local community.
