On Friday, 23rd January students from different leadership roles within Stratford attended a Leadership skills training day.
Students who are in leadership roles through the newly elected Student Council, as prefects, in Green Schools or act as mentors attended the training day.
Training was to do with qualities of leadership. We learnt about skills and qualities such as interpersonal and intrapersonal skills. We did an exercise where we had to describe a picture to a person sitting behind us and they had to draw it!
Thanks to Ms Kenny for organising the day's training.
