"There are so many things that happened this week that changed the way you thought about the world, about yourself and that is something that we can only celebrate”
Yesterday was Graduation Day for our LEAP delegates.
We had the immense privilege of hearing Musical Originals performing at the graduation ceremony. Led by the inspirational Imogen Nicholls MBE, the choir recently won recognition at the Llangollen International Eisteddfod. They not only won the Senior Children’s Choirs and Children’s Open Choirs but were also named ‘Young Choir of the World 2025’! We couldn’t have dreamed of a better musical treat to conclude our eight days of learning.
Karen-Mae Hill, OBE, the High Commissioner for Antigua and Barbuda to the United Kingdom, once again made us the honour of attending LEAP. Her graduation speech was stirring and inspiring to us all, reminding us to embrace diversity, make up our own definition of success, value relationships and live a purpose-driven life.
She concluded her speech saying: “LEAPING, excellence is a collaborative journey but it’s also very much an individual drive” and we couldn’t agree more!
We once again would like to thank Gaëlle Deschamps who concocted this year’s brilliant curriculum, the 40+ professionals who came along this week to speak to or coach our delegates and our many sponsors! LEAP couldn’t have happened without you!
