We have our first customer at Yokai Barber Collective in Nottingham! ✂️
Thank you to Connor, who took a chance on a budding little social enterprise with butter-salted and caramel bags of popcorn 🍿
Huge thank you to owner Jonny who was kind enough to stock all 4 flavours of ACE popcorn.
Next time you're in Nottingham for a barber visit, maybe give one of our bags a look? 👀

One brilliant display of teamwork from our students 👏
Five students took part in a KS4 Multi-Sports Event that consisted of Dodgeball, Handball and Kurling.
The event was organised by Notts Active. 🏀
The five students represented the school in a very positive manner, displayed great teamwork and played the game fairly and to the rules.
Their participation in these tournaments will go towards their evidence for OCR Entry Level PE or PE Life Skills Award accreditation. 🌟
