As I said personal farewells, I enjoyed likening each of them to a Little Miss character which, I hope, they all took in good spirits!
Congratulations to Sophie for winning our Spirit of Fonthill Award, given each year to a girl who embodies the spirit of our House through her positive attitude towards House and School life, showing kindness to others, volunteering to help peers and/or staff, or willingly offering to participate in House events. It’s your votes we count and comments we read – lovely to see so many different names this year across all year groups. Third place was Cat with comments such as ‘she’s always so lovely!’; Second place was Peonie with comments describing her as ‘a great person who really cares about all the younger girls in Fonthill’ and also ‘really friendly and funny’. However, in first place, with an overwhelming 71% of votes was Sophie who was described ‘always happy, positive and supportive’, ‘always involved in House activities and is nice to everyone’, ‘a great role model and always joins in everything’, ‘really nice to all and we all love her!’ and an ‘amazing Head of House’ !!!!
Congratulations, too, to Peonie for winning The Wright Way Award - given by Miss Wright to mark her time as housemistress in Fonthill. It is for somebody who has trodden the right path; somebody exceptional – not just acting in the right way because that is what we expect of all of you - but somebody who perhaps goes that extra mile to help out; somebody who is pro active – who sees what needs to be done before being asked; or somebody who acts with humility not seeking limelight or fanfare and above all – in keeping with the Fonthill way – behaves in the right way with people.
