We were so pleased to hold our annual Sports Dinner Celebration Evening recently, it's a time for the students' achievements to be celebrated and all the attendees had a fantastic time. The Sports Dinner was held in the Woodlands Suite at Ribby Hall, with a red carpet laid out for a grand entrance and photographs. 

Everybody attended 'dressed to impress', with a strict dress code of no jeans or trainers, it was lovely to see everyone wearing their best outfits. Students were asked to take a seat for the awards part of the celebration, with a long list of certificates, badges, trophies and cups awarded to those who had achieved the highest accolades in PE and extra-curricular activities over the last year. 

There were awards for the individual sports that we run, Player of the Year for each, certificates for those students who have competed in multi-school competitions, including certificates and badges for next years' Sports Captains. We have continued to have great success with extra-curricular clubs, with many students still attending 'This Girl Can', Dance Academy or Dance Club and other sports. 

Those students who have helped at events for PE over the year as Sports Leaders were given Bronze, Silver, Gold or Platinum Awards for the time they had devoted to this. The Sports Captains and Vice-Captains were announced for the next academic year, and Mr Waller gave out the Trophies for all round best performance to Zach in Year 9, KS4 Attitude and Commitment to Daisy in Year 11 and Sports Personality of the Year 2023 to Holly in Year 11. Holly is soon to be travelling to Liverpool everyday to continue her training and studies to be a member of the Liverpool Football Team Ladies Under 21s. We wish our Year 11 students every luck in their next endeavours. 

Mr Haydock and Mrs Carroll also presented Mrs Beesley with some flowers, and everyone gave her a very noisy round of applause, as we wish her lots of luck in her new job opportunity in September. She has been a major part of our school, as a PE teacher, Head of Year and more recently a Teacher of RS. Her help over her time at Carr Hill has been much appreciated by the team.

After something to eat, Mr Haydock then raffled off some prizes using a lucky dip. All students names were entered into a selector and picked at random, students could pick from an Amazon gift card, footballs and hoodies. We then attempted to take whole year group photos on the dance floor, before the disco started. The students danced the night away, and thoroughly enjoyed themselves.

A great time was had by all and a selection of photos can be seen by clicking here - Sports Dinner 2023
