‘Tiny’ Britain’s tallest man

Today we were so lucky to invite Paul Sturgess to our school. He talked to us about his career in the American basketball league for Harlem Globetrotters, his Guinness World Records for being the world’s tallest basketball player, the world’s tallest actor as well as being the tallest man in the UK right now. We also learnt that he has embraced being different and that this has since led him to try different careers such as acting. He was a real inspiration and the children were in awe of him. What a great day.
