On Thursday afternoon, we gathered for our Annual Prize Giving Ceremony, a truly special event celebrating the achievements of our incredible pupils. It was wonderful to welcome so many parents, guardians, grandparents, and family members who joined us in recognising the hard work and dedication of our young people.
👏 A huge well done to our Head Girl, Lauren, and Head Boy, Jonathan, for delivering a professional and heartfelt speech, a proud moment of leadership and inspiration.
📘 Congratulations to Mr Johnston on delivering his first Principal’s Report, a confident and thoughtful reflection on a successful year.
🎶 Thank you to Mrs Ryan and Mrs McGuffin for the beautiful music performed by our orchestra and choir, adding a magical touch to the afternoon.
🎤 We were honoured to welcome Dr A. Walls as our special guest speaker. His fascinating insight into the world of an orthopaedic surgeon reminded us how the knowledge gained in the classroom continues to shape lives and careers.
🌟 And most importantly, congratulations to all our prize winners! Your hard work, determination, and commitment to excellence truly deserve to be celebrated.
Here is to another year of growth, achievement, and aspiration! 🎉
