Every girl dreams of being a princess. That dream had a touch of reality today for these

Every girl dreams of being a princess. That dream had a touch of reality today for these 16 Coventry girls, for they were treated like princesses. The girls, past and present pupils at Cardinal Wiseman School, went to Buckingham Palace and met the Duke of Edinburgh who presented them with the gold awards they gained under his scheme. Their mothers went too, and Sister Mary Colman, headmistress when the school first embarked on the Dukes award scheme 10 years ago, and Sister Agnes, whose responsibility it was at that time. At Cardinal Wiseman, there are now 100 girls taking the bronze award, 30 the silver and 25 the gold U more than in any previous year.
The girls receiving their " golds" today have covered a wide range of interests, including music, swimming, reading, dancing, cookery, needlework, typewriting, and badminton. The 16 are Josephine Fensom, Johanna Filipuik, Linda Hamilton, Monica Henry, Geraldine Igoe, Irene Krupa, Colleen Lissamer, Carmel Maguire, Mary Malone, Mary Maughan, Rose Meehan, Mary Naughton, Dawn O Toole, Bernadette Thiedeman, Christine Union and Nora Wright. The present headmistress, Sister Frances Clare, is an enthusiastic supporter of the scheme, for which Sister Margaret has special responsibility. Sister Margaret said today: " The school has always considered the scheme to be of great value in the development of character, calling as it does for perseverance and determination."

EDITORS COMMENTS
Every girl dreams of being a princess. That dream had a touch of reality today for these 16 Coventry girls, as they were treated like royalty at Buckingham Palace. The girls, who are past and present pupils at Cardinal Wiseman School, had the incredible opportunity to meet the Duke of Edinburgh himself. It was an unforgettable moment when he presented them with their well-deserved gold awards under his prestigious scheme. Accompanied by their proud mothers and esteemed members of the school staff, including Sister Mary Colman and Sister Agnes who played significant roles in initiating the Dukes award scheme a decade ago, these young ladies experienced a day fit for princesses. Cardinal Wiseman School has seen remarkable growth in participation over the years, with now 100 girls taking bronze awards, 30 pursuing silver awards, and an impressive 25 achieving gold – surpassing previous records. The range of interests showcased by these exceptional students is truly inspiring - from music to swimming, reading to dancing; cookery to needlework; typewriting to badminton. Their dedication and commitment have been recognized through this esteemed program. Sister Frances Clare, the current headmistress at Cardinal Wiseman School expressed her enthusiasm for this valuable character-building initiative. Sister Margaret also emphasized how perseverance and determination play crucial roles in shaping one's character. This print captures not only a special moment but also symbolizes the endless possibilities that lie ahead for every girl who dares to dream.
