Students and staff will be encouraged to wear something blue and make a small voluntary donation to support the initiative.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, we were delighted to welcome the High Sheriff of Shropshire, Jane Trowbridge, to our school for an exciting discussion about the new Youth Awareness Day initiative.
