Last night was a night of talent and triumph as the Gosport and Fareham Multi-Academy Trust (GFM) hosted its annual awards ceremony, live, from Brune Park. Staff and learners from Brune Park, Bay House, Gomer Junior, Rowner Junior, Lord Wilson School and the Enterprise Academy celebrated their achievements that were focused on the ‘Gosport Futures’.
Chief Executive, Ian Potter, was once again astonished by the achievements of learners from across the Trust’s five schools and other provisions. He said, “I am really pleased to be together again to celebrate the achievements of our young people. My thanks goes to everyone for making this such a significant event and I hope all our students feel a huge sense of pride. The community plays such an important role in all our work and there has been so much to celebrate this year.”
BAFTA award winning, former-student from Bay House, Daisy Jacobs, was a guest of honour and helped to motivate our learners by speaking about her journey to success. She said, “The most important thing is self-belief, you can be put off or others can sway you. I have been told my reach was beyond my grasp but I think you should stick with what you want to do. Put the effort in and enjoy what you are doing!”
Thank you to everyone who made this event possible, including our sponsors TG Escapes, Smart Security and Regal Environmental. A big congratulations to all our winners who will receive a trophy and those who were shortlisted achieved an awards ceremony medal.
