The Goldsmiths' Company Community Engagement Awards ‘celebrate the outstanding contributions schools make to their local community’.

 

After attending the virtual heats, students had to deliver a presentation and were interviewed in front of a panel of judges. Mrs Gerschler was very impressed with our students and extremely proud of their presentation.

 

The judges said that the standard of the submissions this year for the Awards was extremely high and determining which entrants should proceed to the National Final was not easy. We are now one of just eight schools to make it through to the Final.

 

The students, accompanied by Mrs Gerschler will attend the National Final at the Goldsmiths’ Hall in London in June 2024.

 

Watch this space… Me Logue said, “On a personal level, I was extremely impressed by the maturity and confidence of our great children. It was truly humbling and is a major reason why St Damian’s is such a special place. The joy on their faces when they found out they were through to the final was a joy to behold.”
