We recently held our annual All Star Sport events at our Openshaw Campus. 🏀⚽🏐

From basketball, football and netball matches to glow sports and dance, hundreds of current and former students, including some professional athletes, got the chance to take part in a series of exciting, student-centred activities designed to inspire, engage and showcase talent.

A highlight is always welcoming back our former students, whose journeys continue to inspire and show what’s possible.

Big shoutout to everyone who got involved.
