The Belvedere Academy held its annual prize giving recently at the Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral.
The event celebrated the success of students throughout the school. The evening started with a musical interlude performed by the Chamber Choir followed by the principal’s report. School prizes, awards and certificates were then presented to pupils from the lower and upper school before Amy Roberts, a Year 12 student, performed a musical piece.
More prizes, awards and certificates along with special awards were presented to students from the sixth form. After another musical piece, Liz Ashall-Payne, the guest speaker, addressed the audience, after which head girl, Alex McCaldon, thanked everyone for attending the prize giving.
The evening finished with a rendition of “Jerusalem”.
