No More Knives Tour
We were pleased to welcome into school yesterday the ‘No More Knives’ tour from The Message Trust, in partnership with Greater Manchester Police, for a day of scheduled sessions with all our students in Years 7-10 as part of the Co-op Academies Trust ‘Protective Curriculum’.
The performances combined live music from the amazing Rap/Afropop band ‘OTC‘ with powerful, real-life stories and presentations about the devastating impact knife crime can have on everyday people.
The tour and its lessons aim to equip young people with the skills and knowledge they need to say no to knives and help them discover their full value and identity.
Our students were really engaged in the sessions and showed a great appreciation of the hard-hitting but important message about making the right choices and that their life matters!
Huge thanks to our visitors today;
Emma Owen and Dan Bamber – The Message Trust
James, Aidan and Gina – OTC Band
PCSO David Hartley and PC Cath Magall – GMP
