Last week, we shared the news that [Kirkham Grammar School](https://www.facebook.com/kirkhamgrammarschool?__cft__%5B0%5D=AZXk-I9xzMBvjdb3N899eHb-3X5LxPlqBY0FD817jH59hy8W8D4nb1_cFjgXUrA9oXkeZtJkLZ8Aoo8yiMMIkx7re7wtqi7WHgW7QQbicO2x9kdyz-J2DuZQQhNnYGJxpjw&__tn__=-%5DK-R) Upper Sixth pupil, Finntan, has been selected as the Lord Lieutenant of Lancashire's Cadet for 2022/23.

On Sunday, Finntan was honoured to attend his first official event, The County's Reading of the Royal Proclamation in Preston, to hear Lancashire officially proclaim and formally welcome King Charles III as the new monarch.

Lord Shuttleworth, Lord Lieutenant of Lancashire, The Queen’s representative, accompanied the High Sheriff of Lancashire, Martin Ainsworth DL, who read the Proclamation for Lancashire, from the steps of the Harris Museum and Art Gallery. The same ceremony was held in towns and cities across the UK.
