RECORD BREAKERS!
Thanks to all pupils and parents/carers who went to the ice-rink at Millennium Square in Leeds City Centre on Thursday 26 Feb. A few of our pupils took part in the event last year, just missing out on the world record. This year, we took a minibus to the rink, and many parents/carers kindly provided transport for their own children. The officials counted 106 wheelchairs on ice, and the world record was broken! Congratulations!!!
