Today we were very proud to enter a Year 3/4 team into the annual Tony McGinn festival.

Tony McGinn was a teacher at St Michael’s Catholic Academy (part of our St Francis and St Clare MAC), and was passionate about sport, especially football doing wonderful work in the city of Wolverhampton. Sadly, Tony passed away in June 2021 after a battle against cancer and in remembrance of him, a football festival was set up in his name and we were very proud and honoured to be part of this event.

The children played a round robin event with matches against 9 other teams. The children played brilliantly, with a tremendous attitude that Tony would have been proud of!
