Every year we give out a number of awards which mean a great deal to the school as we are celebrating people who made a difference to our school, whether as a student or as a teacher. Through these awards their legacy lives on. These awards are:
Max Santos was a Bayside student from September 2017 to June 2023. He studied drama and he loved volleyball. He was looking forward to going to university when he died tragically in a car accident in July 2023. His friends raised funds and bought a glass trophy and asked his teachers if they could arrange for a yearly award for the student who has given the greatest contribution to the creative arts. They also commissioned a portrait which could be hung outside the drama studio. His teachers organised a volleyball tournament and the proceeds were donated to the Gibraltar Volleyball Association. The Santos Shield was won by Max's friends and teammates.
The first recipient of the Max Santos Award is Rhys McNeice Celecia from year 10. He is a lovely young man who embodies many of the same qualities which made Max a special young man.
