Harrogate is set to celebrate the annual Polish Heritage Day at Harrogate High School.

The event, which will take place on Sunday, will begin at 12pm and is open to people from all backgrounds. It is the second event celebrating Polish Heritage Day hosted at the school.

The day aims to promote integration and raise funds for the Polish Saturday School, which meets every two weeks at the high school.

It will see stalls and activities showcasing Polish life and will begin with a football game followed by Polish food, folk dance and music.

There will also be family entertainment with four bouncy castles, face painting, a raffle and a tombola.

Aleksandra Timberlake, a teacher at the Polish school, said there are an estimated 2,000 people of Polish descent in the Harrogate area and four Polish shops.

She said:

“This year we are going even bigger. I’m sure everyone will find something interesting to do. I can assure you that it will be a good day out for the whole family.
"We would love to see everyone, not just Poles living in Harrogate.
"The school is going from strength to strength. We have got lots of new pupils and we are hoping for lots more next school year. We organise extra activities and days out.”
