Young Ambassadors - Visit to Sleaford Police Station: Knife Crime Workshop

Members of the Young Ambassadors visited 'The Happening' at Sleaford Police Station on Tuesday 16th January. The group was represented by students in Years 7, 9 and 10. QEGS is only the second school in the county to participate in this brand new workshop in a newly fitted out area of the existing Police Station.
The group were shown a number of interactive exhibits that deal with the issues of knife crime, they plan to share this information with the wider school community later this year as part of their role in school to help stop discrimination and anti-social behaviour.
Debra and Tom from the Youth Engagement Team were excellent hosts and trainers and the group thoroughly enjoyed the morning session.
