Local MP, Mike Penning, has congratulated Kings Langley School on winning the People’s Choice Award of the Global Rock Challenge.

The award was contested by schools from all over the world and the participating schools were voted for by the audience.

Mike Penning said:
“Kings Langley School deserved this accolade one hundred per cent. What a great result. I have been following the fortunes of the local schools in the UK Rock Challenge for several years and have enjoyed every minute of it.

“This is a fantastic achievement for all involved and I am absolutely delighted”

The Rock Challenge is an international music and dance competition for schools and colleges which focuses on driving home positive messages about substance misuse and crime prevention by providing young people with the opportunity to experience a ‘drug free high’. The UK Rock Challenge consistently attracts a high number of entries, involving thousands of young people. The initiative is supported by police and businesses around the country and is seen to be a valuable contribution to a student’s Record of Achievement.

The benefits of participation in the UK Rock Challenge are widely recognised and include improved fitness, confidence, mutual support and sense of responsibility.

The UK Rock Challenge is part of a global phenomenon that originated in Australia, but has now spread to include New Zealand, UK, Ireland, Germany, South Africa and the USA.
