Stratford celebrated its Awards Ceremony on Friday 16th October. Congratulations to all the recipients both from Class of 2026 and to all the leaders within our school population, we were delighted to recognise all your successes, and we hope you enjoy your specially selected book prizes.
On behalf of the entire school, I would like to sincerely thank Maureen Kennelly (CEO, Druid Theatre Company) for joining our Awards Ceremony. She spoke with such wisdom and empathy to the student body, and echoed a personal favourite in James Baldwin when she ended her speech with his words: “You think your pain and your heartbreak are unprecedented in the history of the world, but then you read."
A huge thanks to Student Council and John our caretaker for making the Awards Ceremony happen so beautifully.
