Queenswood’s sports stars gathered with staff and families for a truly memorable Sports Awards Dinner on Friday 21 April, celebrating another outstanding year of participation and achievement.

Our guest of honour was Olympic triathlete Michelle Dillon (below, left). Michelle is a truly inspirational athlete and coach. She began her Olympic career as a 10,000m runner before switching to triathlon, in which she excelled – winning countless medals including a Gold at the European Championships. She has held both the British and World Champion titles, and is now an Olympic Coach who works with all levels of athletes from beginners to high profile elite sportspeople.

Jo Wakeley, Director of Sport, remarked: ‘The night was not just a celebration of individual and team incredible achievements but also of the many benefits of taking part. Our awards reflect commitment, teamwork, hard work, improvement and, above all, fun.’

Many congratulations to all the prize winners, and thank you to everyone – over 240 pupils, parents and staff — who attended this wonderful occasion.
