@MrSamPocock @MrGHillPE @adamlivvo Are they both right footed boots? Really, I actually thought you were an ‘old school’ PE teacher? Surely Adidas ‘world cups’ are the only boots in town, no?

Well done to all the wonderful LCA staff & students for completing our 1st full week back at our wonderful academy. So proud of everyone for quickly re-establishing the calm, professional & purposeful culture we all enjoy & are able to thrive within. Roll on Monday🤩

@historyguy7292 Like you I came to this very late. It’s superb & I ended up watching the full 6 series in under 2 weeks! Now need to find something as good to fill the void!

[Richard Chattoe @Chatts4422]

@MissRussell11 Fantastic work Miss Russell & many thanks for your continued commitment & excellence in supporting our brilliant students🤩

Just played at the excellent Dinstanburgh golf course on the Northumbria coast. Beautiful course with some stunning views, holes & immaculate greens.

@LeedsCityWay An absolute pleasure to award this to Alishah. A wonderful young man who has changed his mindset & attitude over the last year, embracing everything that LCA has to offer. He has become a shining example & superb ambassador for his peers, LCA, his family & community. 🤩

[Richard Chattoe @Chatts4422]

Week 2 of LCA ‘Student of the Week’ to be announced tomorrow. I am really looking for an exceptional quality of work & evidence of students showing high aspiration. Cannot wait to see how exceptional our students can be!🤩

[Richard Chattoe @Chatts4422]

Had a great conversation with students today about ideas for the transformation of our outside spaces into a modern & stimulating environment. We shared some great & exciting concepts to take forward. Our students simply love their Academy & are as keen as I am to see it shine🤩

[Richard Chattoe @Chatts4422]

@HPLedu @KCS_Moraleja Hi Jeremy, as Principal at a truly special school with simply amazing students & flourishing student leadership & culture, would love to hear how you have developed this at your school as part of your wider HPL work🤩
