Fantastic Result for Finlay!
Congratulations to Sandhill student Finlay Anderson, who is thrilled after landing a national accolade. Finlay was announced the winner of the national Stabilo Young Journalist of the Year competition. He was chosen by the panel of judges for the article he wrote commentating on the first World Cup match between England and Tunisia. Finlay beat hundreds of other young hopefuls, but stood out with his piece which was extremely well written, engaging and emotional. As the lucky winner of the writing competition, Finlay will have his column published on the First News website, an announcement in the paper and win £1,000 worth of Stabilo products for his classmates. Even at his young age, Finaly is already making waves in sports journalism, having been invited to meet BBC Radio Newcastle commentators Gary Bennett and Nick Barnes at the radio station’s studio. Well done Finlay, you have done yourself and the entire school very proud!
