Overview___________________________________________________________ |
| The Welsh Livery Guild (The
Honourable Society for Arts, Science and
Technology) holds an annual
award by competition, to
acknowledge the 'Best Student' at Barry
College. |
| In March of this year whilst still a BA
apprentice attending Barry College on day
release, Cadet Sgt Ashley Rees of
1092 (Bridgend) Squadron (also a Flight Staff
Cadet at 634 VGS St. Athan) was put forward by
BA for consideration of an award. |
| In contrast to his
competitive nominees, Ashley was taken from the
shop-floor to attend the
interview with one hours notice, otherwise
unprepared and in his 'working-dress'. |
| He has now been notified by
letter, on behalf of the Welsh Livery Guild
Awards Committee of his
success as Student of the Year 2010, and that he
is the recipient of their Award. He was sent a
cheque for £150 'to encourage his
further commitment to his studies' and
arrangements are to be made for the
presentation of a framed
certificate and tankard at a later date at the
college. |
| Sergeant Rees has also
recently been granted a 'Staff-cadet'
qualification by Sqn Ldr Protheroe on his first
Staff-officer visit to 1092. |
