Our annual Sports Day week commenced on Monday 3^rd June with Year 8 tournaments. These consisted of girls’ basketball, boys’ tag-rugby, mixed rounders and mixed badminton.  Year 8 displayed excellent teamwork and talent across all four events and 8H2 took the lead.

On Tuesday we held the Year 7 tournaments with everyone taking part and contributing towards their first experience of GBHS sports day with 7H1 taking the lead after the tournaments. In the afternoon, for the first time, Year 10 had the opportunity to compete in the sports tournaments as well. Almost all Year 10 students signed up to the sports tournaments and A2 took the lead.

On Wednesday 5^th, it was the turn of Year 9 for the sports tournaments with almost all students taking part with 9H2 taking the lead.

On Friday 7^th June, our annual Sports Day took place, this consisted of field events throughout period 1, 2 and 3. Students competed in long jump, high jump, triple jump, shot and javelin to represent their tutor group. There were some excellent individual performances. The girls 1500 m and 800 m took place in the morning, and it was great to see so many students taking part in these events and testing themselves and their endurance. In the afternoon it was the turn of the boys with the 800 m, 300 m, 200 m, 100 m and relay team event.

All students were out on the fields supporting their tutor group, Mr Huartson was on the microphone and tutors were cheering on their tutees. The atmosphere was excellent and it was great to see so many students volunteering to compete. The end results were announced, H2 came first,  E2 closely followed and  A2 were third place. The day was a huge success and students enjoyed the day. Well done to all!
