Supporting Our Community

As part of Black History Month we also strongly support our local and wider community in raising the profile and participating in shared activities. We produced work with the North and East Halifax Blog to encourage other schools and people in the community to share their activities and take part in Black History Month. We also worked with the Calderdale representative for Stand Up To Racism by taking part in their activities too.
