Highfields will be celebrating sporting talent during lockdown with a live-streamed virtual awards ceremony.
This year marks the 4th annual PE Legacy Awards, which are held to celebrate the efforts and achievements of the school’s sporty students over the past academic year.
The virtual PE Legacy Awards will take place from 7pm on Wednesday 15th July. You can watch LIVE on our YouTube channel.
A total of 208 students have been nominated in a range of categories linked to the school’s curriculum, including Captain/Leadership & Coaching, Effort & Attitude, Most Improved and Elite. Awards will also be given out for Sports Person of the Year in each year group, as well as Dancer of the Year (for KS3 and KS4), KS5 Contribution Award and Sports Team of the Year.
Head of PE, Mr C Brickwood, said: “We host the PE Legacy Awards annually to celebrate the sporting achievements of our students, and we did not want them to miss out this year because of the Covid-19 pandemic.
“This has been a strange term, but our students had already achieved so much in a range of sporting disciplines before lockdown, and it is important that we celebrate this, even if we can not host the ceremony as we normally would.
“We are overwhelmed with superb commitment, strong leadership and outstanding personal performances at Highfields, and we are looking forward to honouring the individuals and teams who help the school maintain such a successful sports record.
“Congratulations to all of our nominees.”
