Alsop High officially launches Centenary year
The Rt. Rev John Sentamu, the Archbishop of York, has officially launched Alsop High School’s Centenary year.
The event brought together students – both past and present – teachers, governors and special guests.
Alsop students read out centenary messages while pupils from St Mary’s CE Primary School sang a song.
Archbishop Sentamu blessed the school and was presented with a special gift by student Chloe Judge.
Rt. Reverend Paul Bayes, Bishop of Liverpool, said: “I would like to congratulate Alsop for serving the needs of countless generations of young people.
“The school, rooted in the North Liverpool community, continues to be a force of the common good and shines as a beacon of hope to empower the aspirations and needs of all.”
Former students and staff are encouraged to visit the school website www.alsophigh.org.uk for further information about the #Alsop100 Centenary.
