Time Capsule Competition Results
In the Time Capsule Competition which ran across the last Half Term, Mrs Cruse (Head of Years 7 and 8) set five different tasks encouraging students to create a bank of memories that would help future generations at BGS to understand what it was like to live through these unprecedented times.
The overall winner was Kaila Hill (Year 8) Hepburn.
Mrs Cruse felt Kaila’s responses to all the tasks were particularly thoughtful and included a lovely interview with her Mum!
2nd place was awarded to Harriet Jones (Lower Sixth) Franklin House Captain with her letter to a future pupil at BGS which was particularly warm and interesting.
3rd place went to Rhiannon Douglass (Year 8) Nightingale with her beautiful poster depicting how she had been keeping busy during lockdown.
The following girls were awarded Highly Commended for their creative submissions:
Isabel Almeida (Year 10) Nightingale.
Mimi Collier (Lower Sixth) Nightingale House Captain.
