This week we launched Black History Month with an assembly, to all year groups, delivered by 6th form students. The theme this year is "Honouring Our Communities". The assembly spoke about the importance of community and celebrating the unsung heroes within our local community. We looked back at the story of Black History Month and discussed the importance of celebrating the achievements of members of the Black community, this month, and throughout the year. Congratulations to our 6th form students who presented with professionalism and confidence.  #Belonging #EsseQusmVideri #TheHHEx
