At Gosford Park we were so fortunate to have the inspirational Darren Harris (a two-time Paralympian who competed for Great Britain in judo at Beijing 2008 and football at London 2012) visit our school and inspire our children. Ever since Darren was diagnosed with cancer in both eyes aged 15 months, he has continued to beat the odds, becoming the most decorated blind footballer in British history.
The whole school was blown away by his achievements and his charisma and it really has shown us all that with some determination we can achieve anything. He sent some powerful messages of determination and inspiration! The classes really enjoyed themselves – it was so great to see everyone so enthusiastic! 🏅
