On Thursday 29 November over 500 people, including students, parents, staff, governors and VIPs, attended the annual awards evening at the Floral Hall in Southport. The evening was a fantastic opportunity to celebrate the accomplishments of our 2018 GCSE cohort and present special achievement awards to students across all year groups for academic, citizenship and sporting endeavours. The GCSE cohort of Summer 2018 were worthy of great celebration, having navigated increased rigour in examinations to achieve outcomes which placed them in the top 15% of schools nationwide in the P8 progress measure. Former student, Helen Robinson, was our Guest of Honour for the evening. Helen spoke to the audience about her career since leaving FHS and how she finds wealth and reward not through monetary or material gains but by using her skills to change lives. 49 students collected special achievement awards (a full list is available on our website) receiving rapturous applause from the audience. Thank you to everyone who joined us for the evening and, most importantly, congratulations to all the certificate and award winners!
