The Rowans won its first ever TryAngle Award at Central Theatre, as Eliey Bryant won the ‘Personal Achievement In Arts’ category beating off strong competition from dozens of nominees.

Eliey has overcome personal and behavioural issues to complete her Creative Media Production course for which she was awarded a Distinction. She travelled weekly to Rinse FM radio in order to support her studies and achieving an additional Music Production Qualification from Rinse FM Academy in London allowing her to fuse sound and image boosted her portfolio of work.

Eliey (pictured right with Mr. Nolan) struggled with mainstream school and had been unsettled and disengaged with education. Since joining The Rowans Eliey discovered photography and her creative talents were revealed.

Eliey has been working so hard to get the highest grade possible, her editing and manipulation skills are outstanding and her effort to complete tasks is to be commended. A true professional photographer in the making.

The students nominated from The Rowans were: Eliey Bryant, Maria Keen, Brit Haswell, Ronae Robinson, Arran Warren, Iain Foster, Brendan Jordan Jordan Fazzanni,
