St Paul’s Pupils Shine in Radio Maria Competition
Students from St Paul’s Catholic Primary School in Cheshunt performed exceptionally well in the Radio Maria England 2025 “Young Broadcasters” and “Young Herald” national school competitions, held in December, showcasing outstanding creativity, faith, and confident communication. Their achievements have brought great pride to our school community.
In particular, St Paul’s year 5 pupil Zanna won First Place in the Radio Maria Young Broadcasters Competition with her entry “Gaming and Virtues”, an inspiring accomplishment. She also gained Joint Second Place in the Young Herald Competition (Ages 7–11) with her piece “May We Be One as You Are One”, highlighting her wonderful talent in both creative writing and music.
These excellent results reflect not only the dedication and effort of our pupils, but also the school’s commitment to nurturing young people to use their gifts to share the Gospel and promote unity. The winning works will be broadcast on Radio Maria.
