Awards Presentation
The 2016 Annual Awards Presentation and Dinner was held at the Wheatsheaf, Beetham on Friday 18th November, organised by Margaret Hesmondhalgh and Clive Pollard. 40 people, including many juniors and their parents, enjoyed a 3 course meal and a fun Christmas song quiz, followed by the presentations.
