Hadid win the Year 11 House competition

May 13, 2022/in General News, House Hadid/by BHGS

Year 11 Hadid pupils savour their year group winner’s treat

On Friday 13th May, 11 Hadid celebrated winning the Year 11 House competition for the form with the most house points for this academic year. From their general school and enrichment club attendance to the enthusiasm they displayed in participating to House competitions, Year 11 thoroughly deserved their position at the top of the leader board. They were treated to a feast of pizzas, some snacks and drinks at lunchtime. Their Form Tutor, Mrs Johns, is very proud of all their achievements.

Positive vibes

September 9, 2021/in House Hadid/by BHGS

Spreading positivity

11Hadid have been working on ways they can build house spirit with the other form groups in house Hadid. The first activity they have been working on is spreading positive messages and trying to motivate others through inspiring quotes.

Elizabeth Grayson is carrying out research to find quotes that will inspire the other year groups who are also in Hadid. Amaani Soetan is creating by hand lovely images displaying these quotes. They have made a copy for each of the forms in house Hadid to display on their notice board. Each week they will research and design a new one to share.

11Hadid take the title in an incredibly close tournament!

The first week back after the Easter break saw the culmination of the Year 11 Inter House Netball tournament. Due to poor weather and freezing temperatures play had to be put on hold in the last lessons of the Spring term and the final rounds of games showed some great performances from all teams.

The Tuesday half of the year group finished as follows – 1st place – 11 Austen 2nd place – 11 Franklin 3rd place – 11 Hadid 4th place – 11 Parr 5th place – 11 Seacole

The Friday half of the year group finished as follows – 1st place 11 Hadid 2nd place – 11 Franklin 3rd place – 11 Austen 4th place – 11 Parr 5th place – 11 Seacole

With Austen and Hadid finishing in 1st and 3rd place in each half and Franklin finishing in 2nd place in each half this left all 3 Houses tied on points.

The winner was finally decided on a Goals Scored for each House with 11Hadid coming out on top with a whopping 68 goals scored in their 8 games!

The overall results were as follows – 1st place – 11Hadid – awarded 100 House Points 2nd place – 11Franklin – awarded 50 House Points 3rd place – 11Austen – awarded 25 House Points 4th place – 11Parr – awarded 10 House Points 5th place – 11Seacole – awarded 10 House Points.

An excellent effort from all forms and a lovely way to round off their 5 years of Netball at Bishop’s – well done everyone!

Thank you to all of the form tutors and Heads of House for promoting and encouraging the pupils to get involved in this event.

Thank you to all of the staff who got involved (especially those who made those brilliant videos!) in the events. It was great to see all of your efforts and we know the girls really appreciated seeing you getting involved too.

Thank you to Mrs Dudley for organising all of the results sheets and helping to collate the final scores.

And last but not least, thank you to the PE department for all of their hard work in organising and running Virtual Sports Day Week 2020.

Thank you for taking the time to make this event happen.

I hope you have had as much fun as we have had getting involved and doing something a little different (and definitely memorable) for Sports Day this year and here’s hoping we can do our regular Sports Day next year!

Have a lovely Summer break everyone! Stay safe, keep active and see you in September!

Ice Skating trip

November 18, 2019/in House Hadid/by BHGS

Russian fun on the ice

On Monday 18th November, Mrs Johns and Mrs Redpath took us (Elona and Grace) ice skating at the Van Hague Garden Centre. At the beginning of the session, we were both holding on to the edge of the rink as we tried to ice skate round. However, by the end of the session, we were able to skate round on our own without holding on and we had a lot of fun.

We were taken ice skating because we attend Russian Club and one of the most popular sports in Russia is ice skating. We would both love to go again as we are now much more confident on the ice and proud of the progress we made in less than 1 hour.

House Hadid raises money for Sands

October 14, 2019/in House Hadid/by BHGS

House Hadid’s chocolate raffle raises a lot of money for charity

For its £1 Challenge, House Hadid chose the Sands charity, a stillbirth and neonatal charity that supports all families affected by the death of a baby. We chose this charity because it is not a charity that many people know about; so we wanted to raise awareness of it.

For our fundraising, we organised a raffle with a prize of a chocolate and sweets hamper. The younger years were particularly enthusiastic about this! As soon as we received our start up money, we set out to the town centre to buy chocolate and sweets that could be suitable for everyone, in order for everyone to be included. We created a beautiful hamper and organised pairs to go out through the school every break and lunchtime to sell raffle tickets. Congratulations to our winner, Anna Staples in Year 7!

In total we made £50.85 profit from visiting form rooms at break and lunch.

Christmas Dance Show Award

January 21, 2019/in House Hadid/by BHGS

Winning an award at my dance school’s Christmas show

On Saturday 15th of December I did my 2nd Christmas dance show! I was really excited because I was extremely happy with the dances we did! We worked very hard and practiced for 3 hours every weekend since the beginning of September. The dance school is called The Stoller School Of Dancing based in Cheshunt in a secondary school. The three dance classes that I take part in are musical theatre, modern and hip hop. I have been attending these classes for just over a year now and I really love doing it! For musical theatre I was quite proud of myself as I got the part as one of the Zazus in the Lion King for my acting performance. I also tried my hardest in modern as the dance was quite challenging. I practiced a lot and then my teacher said she would like me and two other people in my group to do the whole dance – I was a bit nervous when she said this but was also happy and proud. Then we did the Christmas show and it all went perfectly. Then to my surprise, she announced the winner for the award of the most improved in modern for the Cheshunt Juniors then called out my name! I was so happy and very shocked. Everyone cheered and clapped and I felt great.

Y7 House Poetry Competition

November 21, 2018/in General News, House Hadid, House Seacole/by BHGS

Year 7 took part in a poetry performance competition to win points for their house.

On Wednesday 21st November Year 7 gathered in the hall during period 3 to watch the finals of the house performance poetry competition. For the last two weeks pupils have been learning about performance poetry in their English lessons, and practising and refining their skills. The two finalists from each form today performed their poems in front of the whole of Year 7, and a panel of judges.

We had a guest performance from one of our judges, Mr Dudley, before all 10 girls took to the stage. It takes a lot of courage to stand up in front of such a large audience, and the judges were impressed by just how well all of the finalists performed. Many of them had not only learnt their poems off by heart, but also thoroughly embraced the concept of performance poetry, acting out their poems enthusiastically and confidently with the aid of the occasional prop.

Special mention must go to our three winners. Thea in 7Ha was the overall winner, with Ruby and Jade (both from 7Se) finishing in second and third place respectively, giving Hadid 100 points and Seacole a total of 75 points. All the other finalists were awarded an excellent (worth 5 house points) for representing their form. Congratulations to all the girls who took part.
