Skittles Club

 

Skittles Club

We are pleased to reintroduce our new “skittles''club for members of the LGBT+ community and allies. This will be running on select afternoons by staff members. This is a non-curriculum club with no discussion around sexuality or RSE.

It is set up as a community club so that students feel they belong. Research shows that belonging to communities improves mental health and wellbeing. Members of the LGBT+ community as well as allies can attend and take part in activities such as making cookies, creating art work and working on inclusion projects.

Agenda and minutes will be added to the Pupil Voice section of this website (on this page below)

Staff members are invited to support either as a member of the LGBT+ community or an ally.  If anyone requires any further information please contact Carol Mitchell or Michelle Taylor.

Thank-you 🌈

Miss M Taylor
Assistant Head - Sixth Form
