Rossett News Update - 31 Jan 2025
Allies Week
This week has been all about highlighting the importance of allyship to the LGBTQ+ community. It's an opportunity for us all to learn about what it truly means to be an ally and encourage others to embrace this role too.
At Rossett, we take pride in being a welcoming and inclusive space for LGBTQ+ individuals. But we know that there’s always more to be done to ensure that everyone feels safe, supported, and able to be themselves.
On Thursday, our students were invited to write a message on a handprint. These handprints will be used to create our Rossett Allyship display.
By stepping up as allies, we can continue to make Rossett a place where tolerance and acceptance thrive, and extend these values into the wider community. Let’s continue to support each other and celebrate the diversity that makes us stronger!
