kids playing with colour powder

David Ross Education Trust sees the school year off with a blast… of colour!

With the 2020/2021 academic year bringing so much disruption and so many challenges, the David Ross Education Trust decided their pupils needed to release some of that pent up lockdown energy… in the form of a colour powder party! At Ministry of Colours, we believe the only way to truly celebrate such a crazy year is to throw an equally crazy end of year party!


The David Ross Education Trust - or DRET, as they’re more commonly referred to - is a diverse network of 34 academies spanning across Yorkshire, Lincolnshire, Leicestershire, Northamptonshire and more recently, London. Committed to providing their 12,000 students with a world class education and unrivalled opportunities, DRET are well on their way to becoming one of the highest performing multi-academy trusts in the UK.


At one lucky school, pupils and teachers were provided with heaps of our fantastic holi powder in seven bold colours, and handed the brilliant power of showering their classmates in as much colour as possible - no rules allowed! Pupils were covered head to toe in a rainbow of colours, adorning their snazzy colour party sunglasses for that extra cool factor. 


Across other schools in the trust, more exciting colour events are scheduled for September as an engaging way of welcoming pupils back to school after the summer holidays. These events will act as a great team building activity to help ease back-to-school anxiety, as well as something to look forward to after a nice and relaxing break.


If you’d like to throw a party as colourtastic as this, don’t hesitate to get in touch for the best quality supplies!
