Melia Gaynor-Palmer

During my time at Vyners I have participated in extracurricular activities, such as drama productions, sports teams/clubs, trips and was invited to be on a select student panel to help decide the next deputy head for the school, which was an honour and a privilege to be involved in. I am a very versatile person and I want to show I'm not only an example for academia but sports as well. I believe I will encourage students to participate in sports and use it as a pathway for health and general well being. I have demonstrated academic excellence by vastly improving my grades, I have received several subject postcards from teachers for excellent work and achievements. I have been awarded with 3 headteacher commendations to date, demonstrated excellence in extracurricular activities, by winning awards for the school. Most recently we brought home the U16 Cup trophy from the Disneyland Paris netball trip. I have represented the school in Borough and Middlesex athletics competitions 2 years in a row and won both. In primary school, I won a Tesco drawing competition in year 2. My artwork was displayed on Tesco bags for life and on the back of Tesco delivery vans which I was really proud of. It even made the local paper!
