Our annual prize-giving ceremony celebrates students' successes and talents, marking a year of hard work and outstanding achievement.

This year's ceremony took place at the Sallis Benney Theatre on Friday 27 July. Through the generosity of a range of sponsors we were able to acknowledge the accomplishments of our students with an impressive array of prizes. After the ceremony all involved mingled in the sunshine and enjoyed a buffet lunch and wine.
