Our footballers have been in action this week for the House Football Tournament, aka The FL Trophy!

This was a 5-a-side with three teams in the Sports Hall:
A combined Fox/Blossom team, then teams from Peregrine and Macqueen!
Game 1 was a close win for Fox/Blossom against the Blues of Peregrine (2-1),
Game 2 saw a slightly tired Fox/Blossom overpowered by Macqueen by the same score, in a feisty game!
A deciding Game 3 had Macqueen get the required win, 5-3, over Peregrine!

Final Table
1st Macqueen 6pts (2W)
2nd Fox/Blossom 3pts (1W, 1L)
3rd Peregrine 0pts (2L)

Sam from Sport presented the trophy, with extra congratulations going to Golden Boot Brad, Golden Gloves winner Kieran B and Most Assists to Steven W 🏆 A big shout out to EL1 ASDAN who were the best supporters ever, with noise, banners and enthusiasm ☺️

🚨Today we were lucky to have a presentation in FL from one of our college horticulture lecturers, who is also a part time policeman with Lancashire Police Force. 👮‍♂️

🐇🦡Jon spoke particularly about rural crime and opportunities for our learners, such as in police cadets.

⛓️‍💥We were privileged to get to try on some of his uniform too! Learners enjoyed the opportunity immensely- especially getting to handcuff staff!

Thank you so much Jon!

🌳 EL3 Employability, along with other FL classes, have been looking at our local environment and what we can do to help it.

🌺In recent weeks we have made natural bird feeders, flower seed bombs from waste paper as well as litter picking. 🪶

🦔 We are really pleased that some of the work we have done can also support some of the hedgehogs that we have onsite! 🦔
Some of these prickly ones have been released through Hedgehog Rescue Blackpool and we are keen to make sure they have the best chances possible.

If you’d like to get involved in helping hedgehogs too let us know below 👇🏻
