Prince William School in Oundle has received two awards at the East Northamptonshire Council Sports and Physical Activity Awards 2019.
The school was the winner in the secondary sports school of the year category, while pupil Rachael Lever, who became a double British under 17 and under 18 fencing champion this year, received the award for sports person of the year.
The East Northamptonshire Council Sports and Physical Activity Awards celebrate the local sports clubs and personalities across the district and the excellent work they do in local communities.
Members of the PE department and Rachael were at the ceremony on Thursday (October 17th) to collect their awards.
Headteacher Elizabeth Dormor said: “This is a fantastic achievement for our school to be recognised for our commitment to sport and physical activity. We pride ourselves on offering a range of sports here at Prince William School and supporting our students to take part in as much sport and physical activity as possible.
“I’m also delighted to see Rachael receive her award, which is very well deserved. She has had a tremendous year, becoming a double British under 17 and under 18 champion this year and representing her country at the European and World championships.”
