INTER-HOUSE EVENT

On Friday 9th October, the school hosted its first inter-house event of the session, a hotly contested inter-house rounders competition. The event was organised with social distancing and safety as a priority but the participants still had great fun battling it out for the title in the sunshine. The eventual winners of the event were Morven house. A huge well done to all of our competitors.

SENIOR AWARDS EVENT

On Tuesday 6th of October, the school held an awards ceremony for our senior pupils to recognise and celebrate their hard work from the previous session. It was not the usual Braidhurst prize-giving ceremony, but the event allowed the school community to praise our pupils who produced a high standard of work by consistently applying themselves. Each pupil received a certificate and a photograph was taken for them to take home.
