Over 150 pupils walked out of Parrenthorn High School in Prestwich today. We marched towards Prestwich Village, and rallied there for over two hours. We were angry, enthusiastic, and LOUD!!

We gave out stickers saying ‘HANDS OFF OUR EMA’ “DOWN WITH BROWNE” and ‘SACK THIS, I’M GOING TO HOGWARTS’ to every pupil in the school, and by 2nd lesson a large amount of teachers were wearing them!
