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

Jordan Sinnott Awards Inspire in South Africa

Former St. Mary’s Menston student and professional footballer Jordan Sinnott was a great supporter of the Bambisanani Partnership charity which uses the power to change lives in some of the poorest rural communities in South Africa. Following his tragic death in 2020 three annual awards were established in his memory at Vumanhlamvu Primary School in the Nkandla region of KwaZulu-Natal. The awards recognise the Sportswomen of the Year, Sportsman of the Year and Sports Leader at the school.
