Waldegrave School End of Spring Magazine 2023

WINNERS JACK PETCHEY AWARD

We celebrate a select group of students being awarded the Jack Petchey Achievement award. The Jack Petchey Foundation was set up by Sir Jack Petchey, to inspire and celebrate young people aged 11-25 across London and Essex. Sir Jack Petchey states that “the Achievement Awards are primarily about recognising those who put in the effort and do their best”. These awards are not just for academic achievements - they may be used to recognise a personal triumph for someone who has faced a challenge, a young person who has pushed themselves out of their comfort zone or perhaps an opportunity to recognise the outstanding efforts of a team player. Waldegrave proudly awarded Eleanor S (Year 7), Milly M (Year 10), Lydia L (Year 10), Zaina R (Year 11), Sasha N (Year 12) and Lauren P (Year 13) with the Jack Petchey Achievement Award at the end of Spring term. Each year our school Community is able to nominate students to win the Jack Petchey Achievement Award. Those who are selected receive a certificate, pin badge and a book from Sir Jack himself as well as having the chance to choose how to spend a £300 grant to benefit their school. On top of this, all award winners are invited to attend a ceremony to be presented with a medallion in front of their friends and families.
