From our Student Council…

Today marks the start of LGBTQ+ History Month. The month aims to educate about prejudice and make LGBTQ+ people visible in all their rich diversity.

The School is proud to be part of the annual celebration of LGBTQ+ History Month and we are holding a wide range of activities throughout February. The activities during this month are just one component of the wider work we are doing across the School to support our LGBTQ+ community.

As a reminder, if this month brings up any concerns or worries, then the counselling service is always available. Pupils can organise an appointment by emailing schoolcounsellor@habsboys.org.uk or can contact a member of the pastoral staff and ask them to arrange an appointment for you on your behalf.
