My name is Alessia and before joining The Sacred Heart Language College I went to St Anselms RC primary school. I have always enjoyed sport and since being at Sacred Heart I have taken part in many competitions and matches e.g netball, volleyball and trampolining. My favourite sport is hockey in which I play regularly at a regional level and I would love to develop this further and one day play national level. This is something Sacred Heart have been extremely supportive of.

As well as my love for sport, music has played an important role in my schooling life. I have been learning the drums since year 7 and this has given me the oppurtunity to play at every school concert as part of our R&B band.

Currently I am focusing on achieving high grades in my GCSE's, particularly in science as I aim to become doctor. My love of science has grown throughout my time at Sacred Heart. This has shown me that continuing in this field of work is what I really want to do and eventhough a lot of hard work is required, it is still possible to succeed.
