Alderman Scott Award Rewards Patchway Teenagers

January 7th, 2011

Two Patchway Comunity College Students were recognised for their service to the community at this week’s Alderman Scott Awards.
Jade Gamlin and Kieran O Shea were the happy recipients of this year’s award.  Jade for her  contributions to sport/health in the local community and Kieran for his contributions to college and the local community in Performing Arts.
Patchway Town Council has been making annual awards to pupils of Patchway Community College (formerly Patchway High School) for many years in memory of Alderman Norman Scott, who was the first Chairman of the Council in 1953.  As a member of Gloucestershire County Council, Alderman Scott fought for the establishment of a secondary school for Patchway and was the first Chairman of the Governors of the High School.
The awards are made, not for academic achievement, but for service to the school community. Jade and Kieran will each hold their cup for a year and were both presented with a book token for £60.
