South Ribble MP visits Priory

Last Friday afternoon we had a visit from Seema Kennedy, Member of Parliament for Priory’s constituency, South Ribble. 

Ms Kennedy was originally invited to the opening of the new IT and Computer Science facility, ‘The Hex’ back in October, however due to other commitments the visit had to be postponed until now.

Ms Kennedy, who is also Parliamentary Private Secretary to the Prime Minister, firstly met with head prefects - Danyal, Georgia, Joel and Trista, to talk about what they enjoyed about Priory.

Mrs Qadri’s Computer Science Club pupils were delighted to have the opportunity to demonstrate some of the skills they learnt since they moved into The Hex, with Ms Kennedy even having a go at programming cars herself!

Before the end of the visit, gardener, Mr Farron, along with his pupil helper Alfie, gave a tour around Priory’s award winning gardens which this summer were successful in achieving community prizes for both Penwortham and South Ribble in Bloom.
