Students attend the Ryman National Enterprise Challenge Launch in Covent Garden

A group of students were invited to attend The National Enterprise Challenge Competition launch event in Covent Garden. Last year Northampton Academy’s Key Stage 4 team ‘Vendinary’ won this competition. The students were very excited and enjoyed a fantastic evening featuring talks from all the challenge supporters and the ambassador of the competition, former ‘Dragon’ Theo Paphitis. During his speech Mr Paphitis addressed Team Vendinary directly saying “Northampton Academy has pulled at my heart strings and believe me, they are hard to find” and he later thanked them on twitter saying “Great to see and hear from @northacad students too and thanks for my card - much appreciated”
