In November, our Jack Petchey winners were invited to celebrate their achievements at a special event in Fairfield Halls in Croydon.

Whilst cheered on by the local community, our students were recognised for their contributions to Riddlesdown. They were nominated by staff and students for standing out in their character, support of others, sports and performing arts. We are so proud of them!

The Jack Petchey Programme and Awards Evening has had a profound impact on the students that were involved from Riddlesdown Collegiate, fostering a culture of recognition, achievement, and community spirit. Through the programme, students are celebrated for their personal growth, leadership, and contributions to school life, which boosts their confidence and motivation.

The Awards Evening is a highlight, where outstanding students are honoured for their hard work and positive influence, inspiring others to excel. This initiative not only encourages academic and extracurricular success but also promotes a sense of pride and belonging within the Collegiate. Overall, the Jack Petchey Programme has created a positive, supportive environment that empowers students to reach their full potential.
