Millie Bright

Millie Bright visited her old school, Killamarsh Juniors near Sheffield, to talk to the students about what it's like to play for Chelsea and England. She also saw her mum Nicola too as she's a teaching assistant at the school. I got the chance to have a kick-about too, bringing back great memories of school break-times!



I also did a simple report for our lunch bulletin including some keep-me-ups!

I've been filming a story with Aden Steelers, a football club for boys from ethnic minorities in Sheffield. They've been educating their squad about the dangers of being radicalised and of getting involved in other crime. I was really impressed with the positive impact the club is having on the boys.

Life Saver

I've been filming a story in Mirfield about a family whose little girl nearly drowned in their garden pond are urging people to learn life-saving skills after a neighbour managed to save her life. PE teacher Frances Hammond has won a national award for carrying out first aid on three-year-old Maryam Ugradar when the toddler was pulled from the water at her home in Mirfield. There couldn't be a better example of why it's crucial for as many people as possible to learn first aid skills.
