It was heartening to see a number of students really step up for their houses and compete in events where normally they wouldn’t be the first choice and all will have come away feeling really proud of their efforts and achievements. Congratulations to our award winners and the whole school for their active participation on the day.

Thank you to our art and photography students for their action shots!
