This year’s Prize Giving ceremony was a fitting tribute to the values that lie at the heart of a Runnymede education: academic excellence, intellectual merit, and personal integrity. In his address, Headmaster Frank Powell emphasised the vital role of ability, effort, and good fortune in shaping future success, and reaffirmed the School’s commitment to a liberal, independent education rooted in choice and high standards. We were especially proud to recognise Lucía LJ a truly distinguished pupil who will go on to read Geography at the University of Oxford. The occasion also marked the achievements of the Fundacion Runnymede College, which is enabling exceptional local students to pursue higher education in the United Kingdom. It was an inspiring morning, celebrating the very best of our school community.
