A huge shout out to Mohammed Musa and the team at Strive Pro Printers for the fantastic work they have done for QUEST Trust and our schools!

We have recently worked with Mohammed on a range of printing projects, including banners and flyers, and we couldn’t be happier with the results.

From start to finish, the whole process was smooth and straightforward. The communication was excellent, the quality of the finished products was fantastic, and everything was delivered promptly and exactly as requested.

It has been a pleasure working with Mohammed, and we really appreciate the care and professionalism he has shown throughout.

Thank you to Mohammed and the team at Strive Pro Printers for helping bring our designs to life!

If you are looking for high quality printing and a reliable, friendly service, we would definitely recommend getting in touch with the team.

Celebrating Sporting Success at St. Peter’s!

We are delighted to celebrate St. Peter’s C of E Primary School, Hindley, on earning the ATSA School Sports Silver Award!

Throughout the last academic year, the school attended 41 sporting events, with 104 individual pupils taking part.

When including children who attended multiple events, this provided an incredible 381 personal development opportunities for pupils through ATSA.

A particularly fantastic achievement is that 100% of Year 6 children represented the school in inter school sports last year, ensuring every child had the opportunity to experience competitive sport and be part of a team.

This recognition reflects St. Peter’s commitment to providing children with opportunities to develop their skills, build confidence, work collaboratively and enjoy the benefits of being active.

Congratulations to all the pupils and staff involved!
