On Monday, the whole school were lucky enough to meet Britain’s tallest man and the tallest basketball player in the world; Paul Sturgess. Paul has had a very impressive career playing basketball for Great Britain and for the Harlem Globetrotters, which our pupils loved hearing all about. All classes were also lucky enough to have a basketball workshop with Paul.
However, asides from talking about his career, Paul had one very important message for our school… to embrace our differences and be proud of who we are! If Paul hadn’t embraced his height, he wouldn’t have found his passion for basketball and all of the fantastic experiences that came with it!
