Leighton Park Partnerships & Outreach

October Reflections 🎃: How lucky we have been in the outreach & partnerships programme with visits from @ReadingCouncil primary and secondary schools in Food Tech, Art, DT and Sport for our KS2 Festival of Football! Meet the Author was a real highlight of the month with 100s of Y5s in Main Hall to meet our Patron Lisa Williamson. #celebratingpartnerships @ISC_schools @HMC_Org
