Dulwich Puxi Celebrates Outstanding Students

Speech Day is a long standing Dulwich tradition which takes place at the end of every academic year. It is a formal award ceremony attended by all Dulwich College Puxi staff and students, and provides the opportunity to recognise those students who have made outstanding achievements in all areas of College life; from academics, sports and music to service, student leadership and overall contribution to the College community.
