Saturday 7th July
Speech Day

Standing Ovation for Gyles Brandreth


The success of the school year was captured in the tremendous atmosphere of the Speech Day ceremony. Author, broadcaster, actor and ex MP Gyles Brandreth proved a warm, witty and highly popular hit with students, staff and parents alike earning a standing ovation in his role as Speaker. Gyles was also on hand to deliver awards during prize giving.

Mr Brandreth enjoyed his day at the school and was particularly impressed with the art exhibition arranged by Mrs Stonehill.

Photographs of many of the Speech Day events, taken by the official OO photographer, Mike Bracegirdle OO, should be available to order from his website MRB Photography, accessed using password DAVIDHOLBACHE (Note CAPS and no spaces) if prompted, after this Friday, 13th July.
