Prep Prizegiving Ceremony
This afternoon, we held our Prep Prizegiving ceremony in the Croston Theatre. We were delighted to welcome former Westholme student, and now international businesswoman, Erika Clegg to speak to us and distribute prizes.
The school orchestra started the ceremony with a rendition of the ‘Can-Can’, with Upper Prep Voices then sang ‘Believe’. It was a lovely way to start the ceremony. Principal Mr Taylor stood to give a speech and welcome everyone, before Prep 2 gave a special performance of ‘London’s Burning’ on Ocarinas.
Head of Prep Mrs Hornby also spoke, listing a series of highlights and successful events that had taken place throughout the year with the aid of photographs on the projector screen. She wished our Prep 6 leavers a fond farewell, students and parents, thanking them for their time at Westholme Prep.
Guest of honour Erika Clegg was introduced by Rameen, the winner of the Prep 5 Reading Competition, and she handed out the student prizes alongside Mr Harrison and Mrs Dixon.
Erika then spoke to the audience, speaking of her memories as a Westholme student and giving words of encouragement to the students.
Mrs Dixon and members of the Sixth Form student executive also took to the stage, and awarded Prep 6 students with gifts as a gesture of goodwill.
Overall, it was a lovely way to end the year at Westholme Prep, celebrate the achievements of our students, and recognise their talents in front their fellow classmates, teachers and parents.
