2011 HBHS Arts Awards
The HBHS 2011 Arts Awards were held in the Hall on Tuesday October 4. The evening was well attended and included a range of music, theatre, speech making and presentations. One of the many highlights of the evening was the announcement of the birth of Head of Language, Arts and Music Faculty Adrian Botting's first grandchild. We congratulate all of the performers and prize winners, and thank the members of our community who shared this evening with us.
