BRIGG SIXTH FORM CELEBRATES STUDENTS' SUCCESSES

Brigg Blog always enjoys attending the Brigg Sixth Form Prize Night - the latest being held last night at the Westmoor Hall, off Grammar School Road.
Our local sixth form - educating students from a wide area of North Lincs - is a joint venture between Sir John Nelthorpe School and what's now the Vale Academy (formerly Vale of Ancholme School).
Brigg's Chris Darlington, who many will know for his charity work with Brigg Rotary and Brigg LIVES First Responders, proved an entertaining and thought-provoking guest speaker.
A full report, with pix, will appear later on www.briggpeople.co.uk and www.thisisscunthorpe.co.uk - to which Brigg Blog will provide links. This will include a full list of who won what.
It was good to see SJN Headteacher Linda Hewlett-Parker and Vale Principal Gail Young, as well as Brian Taylor, long-serving governor, and Nick Grafton and Mark Bradley, Directors of Sixth Form.
We also chatted to a few of the parents there to see their offspring going on to the stage to receive prizes and certificates.
Refreshments were provided by students at the end of the presentations, but, sadly, we had to shoot off to sort out a few other issues - this being the busiest time of year for those of us in the journalistic world. Hence the lack of Brigg Blog posts over the past few days.
AS EVER, BRIGG BLOG INTENDS TO KEEP UP OUR COVERAGE OVER THE CHRISTMAS AND NEW YEAR PERIOD. IF YOU HAVE SOME NEWS OR VIEWS, PLEASE EMAIL scoopfisher@aol.com
