With capes at the ready, students at a Croxley school were “proud” to receive a special award for being ‘Heroes of Diversity, Creativity, and Inclusion’.
For the past seven years, the school has partnered with Electric Umbrella, a charity dedicated to working with adults with learning disabilities to bring the joy of music into schools.
The partnership has been instrumental in promoting diversity, creativity and inclusivity in the school community.
Electric Umbrella may be known for their recent success on ITV’s Britain’s Got Talent, where they performed their original song, Acceptance, which was written alongside the school.
On Thursday, May 1, Sarratt CE Primary School had the honour of welcoming Lord-Lieutenant Robert Voss CBE, who wanted to acknowledge their hard work.
During the visit, the Lord-Lieutenant presented them with the Special Award in celebration of “the positive impact of [their] ongoing efforts to unite the world through music and create a better, more inclusive environment for all”.
Speaking to Bushey News, a spokesperson for the school said: “This achievement highlights the incredible talent and dedication of our students and the Electric Umbrella community.
“We are incredibly grateful for the recognition and look forward to continuing our work with Electric Umbrella to inspire and uplift our students and the wider community.
“Thank you to everyone who has supported this initiative over the years. Together, we are making a difference.”
