Community Action Awards 2023
On Thursday 14th September, Michael Hodges from the Pershore Civic Society accompanied Phil Hanson to present the 2023 Avonreach Academy/Pershore Civic Society Community Action awards.
Nominations had been received from Norton Juxta Kempsey CofE Primary School, Flyford Flavell Primary School, Inkberrow Primary School, Himbleton CofE Primary School, Orchard Primary School and Pershore High School. Teachers were encouraged to identify deserving students who were doing good work in their communities. Amongst others, we rewarded individuals who do daily good works as litter picking, assisting in community gardens, editing school newspapers, and raising money for charity. The overall winners of each school were presented with framed certificates and £30 book tokens. Presentations were completed in two School assemblies with parents and in classrooms. The encouragement of good Citizenship is an area that can be massively beneficial to Pershore town and villages beyond.
