Tenor and former Plymouth College pupil, David Webb, was the special guest at school's Senior Awards Evening, held at Plymouth Guildhall.  The independent school's annual prize-giving event recognises and celebrates the academic and extra-curricular achievements of senior pupils.

As a professional opera singer, David has a career that takes him all over the world.  His many international performances include The Magic Flute in Paris and New York, Monteverdi's The Coronation of Poppea in Madrid and Dido and Aeneas in Russia.

Back in the city for a recital at Sherwell Church this evening, David presented the prizes, performed a musical interlude and gave an inspiring talk about going for goals to the gathered audience of current sixth form, 2011 leavers, staff, families and friends. The evening also included musical interludes by former pupil Dan Snowden and current pupil Sarah Jeffery.

"Many congratulations to all our prize-winners", said Headmaster, Dr Simon Wormleighton.  "The Senior Awards Evening allows us to celebrate our achievers from last year, including academic scholars, sportsmen and women and musicians to name but a few.  We were delighted that David was able to join us to present the prizes, and give such a moving performance and an engaging speech."
