On Thursday, 9th July, our school community came together at the Arts Depot for an inspiring evening at the Jack Petchey Foundation Achievement Award Celebration.

The event put a bright spotlight on our incredible young people, who represent all key stages across the school. The night was a powerful testament to their immense resilience and determination. These students have proven themselves to be exceptional role models, consistently bringing our core school values to life. Through their everyday actions, they perfectly embody:

Ambition: Striving to reach their full potential and aiming high.

Respect:  Treating others and their environment with kindness and consideration.

Effort: Dedicating themselves fully to their personal goals and responsibilities.

Our Clarion Award Recepients:

Neekan 8D, Yousef 8A, Archie 9A, Audrey 9P, Kylie 11A, Bryle 12D, Farah 12A, Mak 12A, Rama 13B

Staff Honours: Leader & Coordinator Awards

The celebrations did not stop with our students! We were absolutely thrilled to see our dedicated staff recognised on stage:

The Leader Award: Celebrated an outstanding staff member nominated by the young people themselves for going above and beyond to motivate and support them. Mr Opoku has been supporting students for over twenty six years and for many of them has been an incredible Year Team leader supporting year groups from Year 7 all the way to Year 11.

The Outstanding Coordinator Award: Honoured the exceptional behind-the-scenes work of our Jack Petchey Coordinator, ensuring our students get the recognition and grant opportunities they truly deserve. Recognition has also been given to staff who has worked with the charity for 10 years or longer.

A massive congratulations to all of our medallion recipients and staff winners. You make our school community incredibly proud!
