Our school had the incredible privilege of hosting Manchester United football players Ella Toone, Maya Le Tissier and Lisa Naalsund, thanks to our partnership with the Manchester United Foundation.
The players spent time in the library with Year 7 students, where they shared their inspiring journeys to becoming professional athletes and playing for the England team. The room buzzed with questions about the successes they’ve had and the challenges they’ve faced during their amazing careers. Then we ventured to the Astro Turf, where football practice was well underway. The players took the time for photos and autographs, and played some football with our girls team.
It was a truly special event and we are so thankful to everyone involved for making this happen at MEA.
