Sport

The children at BGS are certainly enthusiastic about their sport. They are keen and eager to take part with up to four hours of games and PE timetabled each week.

There is plenty of opportunity to try many sports and to represent the school in matches.

Autumn term is dominated by Football, Netball, Rugby and Hockey. Our excellent sports fields are utilised further in the Spring term when Pop Lacrosse and Rugby 7’s are added to the programme. In addition to regional and national fixtures, there are also friendly games and house matches for players of all abilities to take part in.Sports results are read out in assembly and each captain writes a match report for the team.

In the Summer term Cricket, Rounders, Athletics and Tennis are enjoyed by everyone, whilst every week throughout the year children can cool off in their weekly swimming lesson in our indoor pool.

In the Gymnasium our children have access to wall bars, ropes and trapeze to compliment their floor work, working towards our annual Gym competition which is watched by the whole school.
