Bridgnorth Endowed School welcomed students, families, staff, alumni and special guests to St Mary’s Church last Thursday for its Annual Awards Evening – a glittering event to celebrate the achievements, talents and contributions of students across the school.

Under this year’s theme, From Achievement to Possibility, more than 100 students were recognised for their hard work, dedication and the many ways they make a difference, both in and beyond the classroom.

Guest speaker Chris Phillips, a former BES student, returned to share lessons from his own journey. Since leaving the school, Chris has built a career as a paramedic and senior ambulance service leader, alongside running a successful consultancy business. He encouraged students not to be afraid of making decisions and to have the confidence to embrace opportunities as they arise.

Music was another highlight of the evening, with talented BES students taking to the stage throughout the celebrations, which ended on a high with Florrie Cole and Evie Dornan’s stunning performance of For Good from Wicked. Read the full story...
