On Wednesday, 7 July we were lucky enough to have secured 70 tickets to watch the star-studded opening ceremony of the Women's Euros.  The event, at Old Trafford, also kicked off the England vs Austria match in which the Lionesses won 1-0.

Assistant Principal and PE Teacher, Mr Gee was part of the staff who attended the record-breaking game and said: “I have been to FA Cup finals and this was the best atmosphere I have ever felt at a football match. We took 70 children in a crowd of 70,000 and it was a brilliant experience. Everyone loved it.”
