Award winners from Larbert High School's senior prizegiving 2024/25

The dedication, commitment and hard work of pupils at Larbert High has been recognised as the school year comes to an end.

The school has celebrated students’ achievements with events over the last few weeks including the S6 graduation and both the junior and senior school prize giving ceremonies.

The senior prize giving was attended by pupils, staff, friends and family, who all came together to celebrate the achievements both academic and extra curricular.

Speaking at the senior prizegiving, rector Jo Wilson told the pupils: “Your hard work, dedication, and perseverance have brought you to this moment. Each of you has shown that with determination and effort, greatness can be achieved. You have made us all incredibly proud and I feel extremely privileged to witness this on a daily basis.”

She added: “I would like to offer my warmest congratulations to all of the award winners – well done to each and every one of you, and also to the ‘team’ of staff and parents that have supported you on your way.

“All of your hard work, commitment and effort over the course of, not only your last year, but your entire school career has really paid off – you should truly be very proud of your achievements – as we most certainly are.”

This year’s guest speaker for the evening was Jamie Swinney, chief executive officer of Falkirk Football Club, and former Larbert High staff member. During his time at the school he was its first ever Head of Sport and was instrumental in the creation of the much-loved Tryst Community Sports Hub.

There were also three pupils who achieved the highest level of academic performance across the school, who were presented the Dux Award. They each achieved an A band 1 in every qualification they have undertaken.

Jo Wilson said: “We are incredibly proud of everything these young people have achieved and the remarkable work ethic and determination they have shown throughout their school career.

“We just love that these young people have wildly different passions and interests and who are absolutely phenomenal in every way.”
