A great role supporting schools in #Bristol to promote welcome, compassion and understanding for everyone, including those who come as refugees or seeking asylum. Every time a school does that the whole community benefits. Schools of Sanctuary 🧡 Bristol CityofSanctuary 🧡

Pupils and staff Saint Ambrose Barlow Catholic Primary School lead with kindness and respect and believe we all have a role to play in making the world a better place.
A really well deserved award for a school that puts its compassion into action. 👏👏
