To mark Sir David Attenborough’s 100th birthday, students and staff came together for a special lunchtime celebration in Room 12 organised by Rob Jackson, Sir David superfan, and what a wonderful tribute it was!
The room was filled with everything David Attenborough, including books, DVDs, magazines, journals, posters, and even David-themed socks and T-shirts! There was also plenty of cake, biscuits, and chocolates to enjoy while browsing and chatting about one of the world’s most inspiring broadcasters and natural historians.
A special highlight was hearing about Rob Jackson meeting David Attenborough at a Manchester book signing back in 1985 and still owning signed copies of The Living Planet and Life on Earth — a reminder of the lasting impact Sir David has had across generations.
Happy 100th Birthday, Sir David Attenborough — and thank you for inspiring curiosity, exploration, and care for the natural world 🌿
