Stacey Jordan, Headteacher, said “I am so pleased that we are once again able to invite the local community into our school and enjoy some brilliant free and fun activities! The rest of the week in
school will be spent learning about diversity and how everyone is different, but we all have so much in common and we should be celebrating what makes us unique. Visitors will be able to view the
students’ work as part of the festival on the Saturday.

The event takes place on Saturday 2nd July between 10am and 1pm at the school which is next door to The Telford Tennis Centre.
