Fond farewells at Year 11 Awards Afternoon

Our Year 11 students returned to the school for awards, speeches and final goodbyes. 

It was a fond farewell at last week’s Awards Afternoon as Year 11 students returned to the Birkenhead Park School for an afternoon of celebration.

The event began with a special message from Headteacher, Mrs Helen Johnson, and a farewell tribute from Head of Year, Mrs Gidman.

Subject awards were presented to students who performed exceptionally while at the school, whether that was through academic ability or their reflection of our school values and desire to achieve, with teachers from each department giving a short but touching reflection on why each student was receiving their accolade.

The subject awards were followed by five special awards, celebrating students who had gone above and beyond the call of duty during their time at School. Each award demonstrated one of our schools values, Positivity, Ambition, Resilience and Thoughtfulness.

The grand finale was an amusing but emotional look back at pictures and memories from the students’ younger years – some fairly embarrassing but all good humoured, and some special cheers and laughs were reserved for the crowd’s favourites.

We wish each and every one of our Class of 2019 every success in their future endeavours, and we are proud of everything that they have achieved, which we are sure is just the start of their very happy and successful futures.
