Miss Hooker (PE Teacher)
Friday 10th June saw some of our athlete’s head to the Bedford International Athletics Stadium to compete in the East Area Prep Athletics Championships.
Under the sparkling sunny skies, BGS were amongst 50 schools vying to secure places at the Nationals for early July. We had some great performances throughout the day, personal bests and we’re delighted to say that the following athletes have qualified for the National Athletics Finals at the Pingles Stadium in Nuneaton on Monday 4th July.
