St. Mary's are grateful to Andy Lockwood, Professional Development Manager at the university for the insight into the university and the opportunity to use their state of the art facilities.

The visit took place on Thursday 10 December 2015.

We look forward to meeting the students from the University of Leeds in South Africa in June 2016.

““The visit to the university campus gave us an insight into all that the University of Leeds has to offer, as well as what it can inspire us to take on our trip to South Africa. Thank you to all involved, a great experience and opportunity.””
— Oliver Armitage, Year 12
