Senior School awards recognise excellence

Yesterday’s Senior School annual awards assembly was a wonderful celebration of student achievement across a wide range of disciplines, including Art, Modern Foreign Languages, Drama, Sport, Music and Debating, with trophies awarded for outstanding success in each area.

We also recognised students who have achieved their Bridgewater Colours – a special award that honours those who consistently go above and beyond in representing the school. This includes giving their time and energy to support school productions and performances, sports teams, competitions, as well as event organisation and charitable fundraising. The award reflects not only excellence and commitment, but also the positive way students represent Bridgewater both within and beyond the classroom.
