'By wearing our cultural clothing on this day, we can combat the misrepresentation of our identities and reclaim the narrative. It is time for people to hear our heritage' Aleena (Y10)

Our second successful Culture Day at DAA; a superb fusion of colour, pride and honour! Staff and students reclaimed their cultural narrative, painting a thousand splendid stories through tapestry, silk and chiffon, effortlessly used to seamlessly piece together cultural heritage!

Fantastic commitment and dedication shown by our Y11 students during Easter school as they tackle language and structure in Shakespeare's Macbeth.

'There is no power for change greater than a community discovering what it cares about'. #happiness
