From Mayor, Margaret Greer:

What a lovely morning (16/04/26) spent with a group of students from Enfield Grammar School, who I first had the pleasure of meeting during their annual Black History Cultural Event last October.

A big thank you to Josiah Obeng, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) Lead, for arranging their visit to the Mayor’s Parlour.

It was a real joy to hear their thoughtful questions about my journey to becoming Mayor, and to share some of my experiences and hopes for the future.

Their energy, curiosity, and enthusiasm truly made the visit special.

The students also had the chance to observe a Citizenship Ceremony, which takes place almost every week.

It gave them a glimpse into the more formal side of the role, including the Mayor’s opening address, and highlighted the proud history of Enfield Grammar School—founded in 1558 and still inspiring ambition, creativity, and excellence today.

It was a pleasure to spend time with the students and Mr Obeng.

Here’s to continuing to build strong community connections and supporting the next generation to thrive.
