Our Active School Hero – Mr Lewis!

And the Regional Winner is…………

We are all extremely proud to announce that Mr Lewis has been named the Active School Hero – South East England regional winner!

Mr Lewis was one of over 900 nominations, with inspirational stories received from across England and he is one of the 9 regional winners. The award aims to shine a light on individuals who inspire children to be active in what has been a challenging year for the mental and physical health of young people, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. 

Following an interviewing process with the regional winners, the national winner of the Active School Hero Award will be announced at a virtual ceremony taking place on Tuesday 20 July,  featuring Paralympic Champion and ukactive Chair, Baroness Tanni Grey-Thompson, and Team GB Paralympic champion, Richard Whitehead MBE. 

Mr Lewis has already had his interview with the judging panel, so we are keeping our fingers firmly crossed for the news of the National winner.

This is a fantastic accolade for Mr Lewis and we are so pleased that his hard work and dedication to the school has been nationally recognised.
