A world of creativity Last Week at BGA was International Creativity Week. The school was transformed into five different countries where students were involved in a diverse and vibrant collection of learning activities.
Atmospheric experience As part of their Geography and Science GCSE course last week Mr Whipp, Ms Brannick and Mr Pedley took two separate Yr 10 groups to the 'Atmosphere' Exhibit at the Science Museum.
Students were vertically grouped and spent their time engaging in creative learning activities with an international theme that included samba, painting, food tasting, calligraphy and capoeira. The week was very successful and students enjoyed learning in different ways and with different groups of people. Afternoon lessons were spent with visiting practitioners who brought their cultural skills and knowledge into BGA to contribute to a thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Students worked really hard when at the Climate Change exhibit, and said they really enjoyed the experience. Mr Whipp says that "Not only was their behaviour when at the museum exemplary, but while traveling there and back they really made us proud". Amin Uddin made us especially proud by giving his seat up to a lady on the train, and she proceeded to ask which school he went to. "BGA of course". Congratulations to all who participated !
