>>TEACHING SECTION TRIUMPH - YOUNG ACHIEVER AWARDS

Congratulations to Amy Claridge and her team who have all^* been awarded Hillingdon Council Young Achiever Awards for their work in the Hillingdon SC Teaching Section. 

Amy along with Meghan Wilson, Sarah Nisbet, Michael Biedul, Russell Heath, Olivia Lawrence, Matthew Gandy, Michael Jones, Katie Smith and Tria Lawrence have been selected from other individualS and teams within Hillingdon and invited to the award ceremony next month at the Park Inn Hotel Hillingdon. 

We are very proud of this young team which not only provides an effective and popular weekly teaching program but also has a good track record of developing teachers and coaches.  Well done to everyone! 

*Sadly Colin Hick and Mary Moloney, also key members of the teaching section team, were deemed just a little too old to be considered ‘Young Achievers’ by Hillingdon Council.
