Celebrating Excellence: Winter Prizegiving Evening 2025

We were delighted to celebrate this year’s Prize-Giving Evening, held on 18th December 2025. The event was a wonderful opportunity to welcome back our Year 13 students who completed their Sixth Form studies in the summer and to hear about their experiences at university or in their chosen careers.

Prizes were awarded to recognise outstanding achievement across both the Year 11 and Year 13 cohorts (2024/2025), and Veritas Awards were presented to pupils who have exemplified our values throughout their time at St James’.

A special thank you to Jade Foley, a former pupil, who joined us as our guest speaker for the evening, sharing her insights and inspiring the audience. We are also grateful to our talented musical acts, whose performances were beautifully received and added a memorable touch to the celebrations.
