Cultural and Performing Arts Awards 2014
The Cultural and Performing Arts Awards, held last night in the School Hall, was a truly wonderful showcase of the immense talent that we in HBHS have in the arts. Guests were entertained by a range of sparkling and polished musical and dramatic performances, courtesy of the Gypsy Pickers, the HBHS choir, a newly-formed Ukulele group, HBHS's drama students and the Jazz Band. Congratulations to all of the performers for their exceptional efforts last night, and to Captain of Arts Patrick Webb (pictured) on winning the Cultural Performer of the Year Award.
