✨ What an unforgettable experience!

One of our pupils was absolutely starstruck after meeting his favourite gymnast, Max Whitlock while attending the Commonwealth Games! 🤩

A very special moment and a memory we’re sure he’ll treasure for years to come. We’re delighted he had this amazing opportunity! 💙

Well done Papdale Flyers!
