Junior talent shines at Alexandra Park
Date published: 14 July 2008
NEVER mind “Britain’s Got Talent” — one Oldham school has discovered pupils and staff with amazing abilities.
Over the past four weeks, pupils and staff at Alexandra Park Junior School, Glodwick, have been nominating anyone they think has a hidden talent.
The gifted youngsters, some who were spotted for their sporting, artistic and musical talent, were then congratulated with special certificates during National Shine Week. Staff were also recognised for taking part in the Great Manchester Run.
Teacher Gemma Whitworth said: “Thousands of schools across the country took part in National Shine Week to spot children’s hidden talents.
“We then took pictures of them for the shineweek.co.uk website.”
