On Thursday 4th February, the Hayes School PE Department hosted their 5th Annual Sports Awards Evening. It was an evening to celebrate the Sporting Achievements of Hayes School students over the past year. It was the biggest Sports Awards to date with over 500 people in the audience and over 250 different students winning awards. Mark Regan, the former England, British and Irish Lions and Rugby World Cup winner, delivered an inspirational speech about what it takes to become an elite sportsperson. We were very grateful to Mark who remained on stage for the whole evening to give out our awards. He also stayed long after the awards had finished signing autographs and having his photograph taken. Throughout the evening students received awards for effort in PE lessons, contribution to Leadership, Players’ Player of the Year and Colours for contribution and excellence in Sport. This has been a fantastic year for Hayes School sport with successes in local, regional and national competitions.
