On Monday 23rd May 2016  the school Council launched the Simon Richards Award In memory of Simon Richards.

Earlier in the year the School Council and some Year 5 children set up a shop of unwanted toys, to raise money.  They ran the shop in their own break and lunchtimes and raised over £300.  They wanted the money to help purchase something in Simon’s memory.

We commissioned and purchased a memorial plaque and created ‘The Simon Richards Award’ – this will be presented on a termly basis to children who use their talents for the benefit of others.

Anita, Simon’s Mother, was present during the assembly to endorse the Award.
