Keelelink and Keele Student Ambassador Awards Ceremony
We are pleased to announce the winners, runners up and nominees from our fourth annual Keelelink Awards ceremony in Keele Hall on 17th May.
This year the ceremony, that aims to reward Keele academic staff, learners and partner schools and colleges, saw an additional lunch-time ceremony to celebrate the work of 254 Keele student ambassadors.
Both ceremonies saw performances from pupils from St. Margaret Ward Catholic College, who wowed the audience with street dancing and stunning vocals, the Keele String Quartet and The Keele Panther Cheerleaders. Learners on the A2K scheme are pictured above picking up their awards, with winner Adele Smart, second left.
Key-note speeches from Pro Vice-Chancellor, Kevin Mattinson, in the day, and Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Provost, Rama Thirunamachandran, in the evening, were followed by a three course meal in Keele Hall Ballroom.
Pictured opposite are the 17 Keele Ambassador STARS, who have been ambassadors for at least two year and are leaving the University this Summer.
