First Ever KS3 Inter House Football Tournament at BHGS

During the first two weeks of March, the PE department ran the first ever KS3 Inter House Football tournament at BHGS. Football has only been a permanent fixture on our curriculum for the last 2 years and this was the first time the Inter House Football tournament had been able to take place. Pupils in Years 7 and 8 had to select a team of 7 (including a goalie) on each side of their PE year groups whilst Year 9 pupils had to select a team of 9 players (including a goalie). The pupils had to battle with some typically poor weather for March but that did not deter their spirits and positive attitude to put into practice what they had been working on in their PE lessons.

House Parr Bin Bag Fashion Show

/in /by

Teachers dress up for the Bin Bag Fashion Show to raise money for The Rainforest Foundation UK

As House Parr, we chose to raise money for the Rainforest Foundation UK in our £1 Challenge as we are all extremely enthusiastic about helping the environment and conserving the rainforest and its indigenous tribes. We felt this was a good way to help the environment after the Amazon Rainforest fire. Our house organised several events to raise money for this charity and in total we raised £188.03.

A small group of us organised and carried out a bin bag teacher fashion show as we figured it was an original idea that worked well with our environmental theme. Although at first we felt it was risky and weren’t sure it would pay off, it was very successful on the day and we raised approximately £120.

27 teachers participated in the event and each form designed and created a bin bag outfit for a teacher. 7 Franklin were the winning form for the best outfit, creating a masterpiece out of colourful crisp packets for Mrs Higgin; Mr Kench was voted best teacher model by the audience members.

Year 10 Inter House Basketball Competition

/in , /by

House Parr Emerge Champions!

Year 10 pupils were off timetable periods 1 and 2 to take part and support the annual Inter House Basketball competition on Tuesday 4th December,

Each House selected a team of pupils to represent them as they participated in the round robin style competition. Year 10 pupils had all taken part in Basketball this term as part of their Core PE lessons so there was an opportunity to put all of those skills to the test in a competitive House tournament. Indeed there was some excellent skill on display from both individuals and whole teams in front of a very supportive crowd!

Moving in to the last round of matches only 2 teams remained undefeated – House Austen and House Parr who were both on 15 points.

This game was the closest overall with both teams taking and losing the lead before a basket on the final whistle took the 6-4 win (and the tournament) for House Parr.

There were also particularly impressive individual displays from – Ruby Buck, Abby Mann, Izzy Carpenter, Annafaye Fasoto, Amber Keane, Heidi Stephenson, Ibukun Oluleye and Georgia – Leigh Childs Cartwright.

Final placings were as follows – 1st – House Parr (20pts) 2nd – House Austen (15pts) 3rd – House Hadid (8pts) 4th – House Seacole (5pts) 5th – House Franklin (3pts)

A huge well done to all of the pupils who participated in this competition – the level of Basketball on display was fantastic and we look forward to more of the same next year! Thank you to all of the pupils and teachers who came to watch and support the event. Finally, thank you to Miss Cameron and Miss Morgan for organising and running the event.
