Welcome to The Hub School

No More Knives Project 2020

On the 4th March we welcomed into the Hub school the No More Knives Campaign. Mo Timbo who is originally from Peckham and involved in gang shared his story.

The students were interested in Mo's story and he regaled the evening he was stabbed in his arm and chest. We then listened to Kayliegh Pepper who's brother Richard would have had his 30th Birthday the following day but sadly he was murdered in an horrific knife crime. Staff and students fought back tears listening to Kayleigh tell how she would give anything for one more day with her brother Richard.

The students then listened to a real life murder investigation by Richard Whelan from Humberside police and the students were surprised to hear the driver on the night of the crime also got a hefty jail sentence for his part in this crime.

Finally the students met an author called Christina Gabbitas who has written a book all about knife crime. She signed a copy and gave every student their own copy.

Richard Whelan from Humberside police said he felt the day had more meaning to our students than some of the big talks he does in many large schools around the country. We would like to thank the No More Knives team for visiting us at The Hub School.

Active 30 Leadership Camp

On Wednesday 16^th October 2019 some of our students took part in Active 30 Inclusion 2020 Sports Leadership day at Haltemprice Leisure Centre. A special thanks go to our year 9 student Charlie, two year 10 students Jason and Connor and one year 11 pupil Quinn.

A summary of Active 30:30 by Charlie Year 9

On the day of active 30:30 I was told about many things one of which was about a Wimbledon tennis player who was there, she told us about her ups and down and why she didn’t give up and neither should we. I and the group learnt that it about taking part and involving other people not just winning, we did a few activities such as team building relay race this helped us gain friends and get other people involved who normally wouldn’t. We all had to create our own sort of activity but we had plans in case we got stuck, I think it was good learning from other schools as well as passing ideas on I felt out of my comfort zone but I kind of enjoyed that part of it. Quinn, Connor and Jason all took part and were a big confidence boost for me and members of other schools. Mr Renier and Mr. Brookes both gives us tips and helped us with imaging techniques for the written side of things. All in all we had fun and I think most of the adults did to and I hope to go to future events.
