Celebrating Black History Month Through Food
20 October 2025
Last Friday, our school came together to celebrate Black History Month with a vibrant and meaningful food sale. Students and staff enjoyed a delicious array of traditional African and Caribbean treats, including Chin Chin, Mandazi, Puffs, and Cupcakes adorned with toppers featuring iconic Black figures from history and culture.
The event was not only a celebration of heritage and identity but also a fundraiser for a vital cause. We’re proud to share that we raised over £100 for Black Minds Matter, a charity dedicated to supporting the mental health of Black individuals and communities.
Before the end of break, Culture Club leader & Head of ICT, Mrs Qadri managed to gather the team of helpers together for a photo with our BHM flag too!
Alongside the food sale, throughout the week, Head Prefects Tarela and Hiylie delivered assemblies during Learning for Life sessions to pupils across years 7-10.
Thank you to everyone who contributed, baked, bought, and supported. Your generosity and enthusiasm helped make this event a joyful success!
