  • The Manchester Giants join us for Family Dining

    Published 31/03/23

    The Manchester Giants, competing in the top-tier British Basketball League, spent Wednesday and Thursday training in our sports hall ahead of their upcoming games against Plymouth City Patriots, Caledonia Gladiators and Cheshire Phoenix. We can’t wait to show our support at these games as the Giants have very kindly given tickets to our students and staff.

    After they had finished training, The Giants joined us for a very special Family Dining. They spent the time chatting with our students before everyone did a Manchester Giants themed basketball quiz. Well done to our winners, 8E, who scored an impressive 100%!

    The Manchester Giants then returned to our sports hall to coach our students on dribbling, passing and shooting. A big thank you to the Giants for supporting and inspiring our students.
