Bulwell Academy Visit

Thursday, January 24th, 2013

Nottingham Forest and England midfielder Jermaine Jenas visited the Bulwell Academy on Thursday the 22nd of November. Jermaine represented the The Aquinas Foundation, gifting Land Rover mountain bikes to the school, which will be used to reward positive achievement at the schools end of year awards.

 

Jermaine also took part in a question and answer session with a group of students and introduced the Aquinas Foundation to staff at the Academy. Aquinas aims to support local communities and schools to help lower truancy and raise attainment levels amongst young people.

Jermaine is a great role model for young people in Nottingham and many of the schools students took to twitter later in the day to express how much meeting him had meant to them and how inspirational the experience has been.
