Hinde House

A knock-out visitor

Hinde House student were inspired by the recent visit from Barry Awad, the World Champion boxer from Sheffield. Barry is better known as Kid Galahad, and returned to his old school to motivate students to take their education more seriously than he did!

Barry’s former teacher, Michael Jones, said that Barry was a ‘cheeky chappy’ but was completely dedicated to his sport at the early age of 13. Barry admitted that he wasn’t the best pupil and said: “I want the new generation of students at Hinde House to be as successful academically as I have been in the boxing ring.” Our students gave Barry a resounding cheer and wished him continued success in his career!
