Sports Awards honour Summer Term stars.

The end of term Sports Awards Assembly celebrates all of the fantastic sporting achievements of the term and today’s assembly was no different. Mr Hodgkins started off by paying tribute to all of the hard work that goes on behind the scenes at King’s Hawford. Mr Callow and Mr Vaughan work tirelessly to ensure the pitches and courts around school are in the best condition possible. The catering team provide nutritious match teas and packed lunches, and both of our matrons are on hand each day to patch children up.
