We have had the pleasure of hosting a US Girls Taster Day at our school! Led by US Girls Ambassadors supported by Mrs Turner, Health and Wellbeing Development Manager and Mrs Denham-White, Health and Wellbeing Activator for Lichfield District Council, the session provided our pupils with a glimpse into the incredible opportunities offered by the US Girls Programme.

Here at Chase Terrace Academy, we are proud to have several US Girls Ambassadors who actively support members of our community whilst developing valuable skills, fostering networking, and building friendships. Pictured are Lola, Molly, Lucy, Grace and Gabriella- our ambassadors who are dedicated to upskilling their peers, creating a positive impact through taster events at school, and supporting weekly sessions every Tuesday at St Johns Church, Burntwood. The pupils have also achieved their Level 1 Safeguarding certification after attending a comprehensive training session at Erasmus Darwin Academy and are gearing up for Street Aid Training in March, focusing on emergency first aid skills applicable in real-world street scenarios.

This taster session not only provided a sneak peek into the US Girls Programme but also aimed to raise awareness and inspire other young adults to join the ranks of US Girls Ambassadors. Additionally, it offered our pupils a fantastic opportunity to engage in various extra-curricular activities, including arts and crafts, dance, painting, Jenga, cup stacking, disc throwing, and even the distribution of free lip balms during lunchtime.

A big thank you to the US Girls Ambassadors, Lichfield District Council and everyone involved in making a memorable and enriching experience for our pupils!
