The 2019 Performing Arts and Cultural Awards Evening
Cultural and Performing Arts Awards 2019
On Tuesday 22 October Awards Season 2019 kicked off, and HBHS celebrated all that is musical, artistic, theatrical and oratorical at the Cultural and Performing Arts Awards evening. The evening was compered by Deputy Headmaster Mr Stuart Hakeney, and the unofficial word on the ground was that this was one of the best Arts Awards evenings ever. The talent on display was, as it always is, extraordinary, and the seemingly effortless performances were testament to the hundreds of hours that are put in by students, staff and families behind the scenes. The list of award winners is presented with pride, and we congratulate them all, with special congratulations to Cultural Performer of the Year, Aidan Scott-Nanthasack.
