Prep pupil joins ISA Roll of Honour

We are thrilled to share the news of former Prep pupil Oliver’s induction into the prestigious ISA Maxwell Roll of Honour. This renowned prize celebrates the exceptional accomplishments of Year 6 students and commends their comprehensive contributions to both school and community life.

Oliver, who held prominent roles such as Prep Head Boy, Sport Captain, Head Gardener, and devoted member of the Prep Choir, has left an indelible mark on the Prep Department. His dedication and enthusiasm have resonated across various spheres of school activities, showcasing his remarkable versatility and commitment.

A true renaissance student, Oliver has showcased his talents not only on the academic front, but also in arts and sports. He has graced the stage as a lead performer in numerous school productions and represented Bridgewater in an array of sports and musical endeavours. Oliver has been a vital asset to school quiz teams, demonstrating his acumen in general knowledge, science and maths competitions.

Oliver’s influence has extended beyond the classroom, as he actively participated in initiatives aimed at bettering the community. His pivotal role in the Prep Council underscores his leadership abilities, notably in spearheading fundraising initiatives and acting as a spokesperson for the school’s Anti-Bullying campaign. His altruistic nature shone further as he undertook a ‘double marathon’ fundraising challenge for the homeless charity Shelter, resulting in his well-deserved Blue Peter badge.

Mr Rooney, Head of the Prep Department, expressed his pride in Oliver’s journey: “The nomination for the Maxwell Prize stands as a testament to Oliver’s exceptional contributions, highlighting his positive influence on our school environment. Oliver’s induction into the ISA Maxwell Prize Roll of Honour not only recognises his achievements but also underscore the values of dedication, leadership and community engagement that lie at the core of our educational ethos. We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Oliver on his nomination and eagerly anticipate the positive impact that he will continue to make as he embarks on the next phase of his journey as a Senior.”

As a student, you are the most amazing discovery you will ever make.
