Tonight our annual A Level awards ceremony has taken place with an array of winners and special guests.
The Silverdale Student Hub was transformed into a spectacular venue to warmly welcome back a large number of our A Level students who left this summer and have since gone on to some prestigious destinations across the country, including Sheffield, Durham, Lancaster, Oxford, Cambridge and UCLan.

The Ralph Hope STEM Award was awarded to both Eleanor Armstrong and Harry Boardman. The Contribution to Student Community award was won by Charlie Hall, and Owen Aspey won the Governor’s Excellence Award. Our student of the year was Georgia Doherty – congratulations on this prestigious award. Zamry Rizwan also spoke on behalf of the student body, delivering a great speech in front of his peers. During the evening we were entertained by our excellent performances from Runshaw’s Music Band and Orchestra and other highly talented student musicians. The ceremony also included drinks, festive canapés and photos. It was a wonderful evening and a fantastic opportunity for us to show how proud we are of the achievements of our A Level students – we wish you all continued success for your future.
As always, the event organisation was a great cross-college team effort; from subject teams and pastoral mentors providing nominations, staff registering students on arrival, the organising of seating and prompting students and VIPs on the evening, to cleaning, decorating and security – thank you very much to all those involved. Finally, we would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a happy and prosperous New Year!
