ROYAL GREENWICH VIRTUAL SCHOOL EDUCATION ACHIEVEMENT AWARDS 2025
The annual Education Achievement Awards presentation evening was held in October at Charlton Football Ground with guests welcomed to the event with a musical performance by a trio of colleagues from our Greenwich Music Service.
This year 94 children and young people were successfully nominated and recognised for their achievements in five categories, including developing a positive attitude to education, academic achievements and wider educational achievement.
We also celebrated our five Special Award winners, eleven of our young people who went on the Virtual School Journey to Jamie’s farm, a working farm where they learnt to cook, milk cows and round up sheep, as well as eleven of our young students whom attended our Summer School 2025.
The evening was opened by Cllr Anthony Okereke, Leader of the Royal Borough of Greenwich and our children and young people were delighted to be presented with their award by The Mayor and Cllr. Adel Khaireh Cabinet Member for Children and Young People.
The formal presentation concluded with a singing presentation from “a choir in a day”. The choir met and formed just one week before the awards evening with some of our children, young people, carers and virtual school all coming together, beautifully coordinated an lead by Laura Baugh, head of the Music Service, to perform a very uplifting version of Better When I’m Dancin’, with the audience joining and singing along.
On conclusion of the presentation everyone tucked into dinner followed by a disco with our children and adults having an enjoyable time dancing, playing games and having their faces painted. A fantastic time was had by everyone, with our wonderful children and young people leaving happy, holding their photograph taken with The Mayor with their medal around their neck and a book kindly donated by the Book Trust. A truly humbling but most pleasurable and amazing evening acknowledging, congratulating and celebrating with many of our young people and their achievements
