UP FROM THE ROOT

One Community Link had an incredible two days delivering Up From the Root anti-racism workshops for 200 year 8 & 9 pupils from Outward Academy Bishopsgarth secondary school in Stockton.

 

We talked about the history and impact of racism, focusing on unity to challenge it, ending with a dance routine from Notting Hill Carnival.

 

The energy from both teacher's and pupils was amazing, with evaluations evidencing that Up From the Root supports and develops what is currently being taught in schools on colonialism, and that teachers valued the lived experience of our staff team and expert delivery. 

 

We are looking forward to working with Outwood Academy Bishopsgarth again. Big Up Outwood!!
