Headteacher’s Values Award winner: Emily Southcoat

The Headteacher’s Values Award was presented to Emily Southcoat, in Year 8.  Emily was nominated by Mrs Norman, who wrote: “Emily has scooped first prize in the Bastille Day Trust Challenge.  The competition was open to students across Year groups 7 to 12 from Richmond, Stokesley and Northallerton, the three schools in the Areté Learning Trust.   The entries were judged taking into account the age of the students and Emily’s project was judged as the overall winner from our school.

Emily’s work shows very detailed research about this symbolic event for France and she offers interesting and less well-known facts about the French Revolution. Many of our school values are embodied in Emily’s presentation and her excellent work impressed and delighted both Mrs Drumm and me. The standard of her work was most impressive, especially considering she was in Year 7 when she completed it.”
