On Thursday 27 October, we held our annual Performing Arts, Design & Creative Technologies Awards Breakfast to recognise the outstanding achievements of our students.
As Deputy Principal, Mrs Rachel Roberts, mentioned in her opening address, the Cultural Cornerstone has been thriving throughout the year despite COVID-19 cancelling or postponing events.
Our girls should be incredibly proud of their efforts, dedication and achievements. Thank you to our staff and tutors who provide their expertise and time to support our students and provide them with wonderful opportunities.
