INVITATION
Artbeat 2011 Exhibition: Preview Event Since its launch in 2003, I think it’s fair to say that the Artbeat project, supported by our community partner Allen & Overy, has gone from strength to strength at BGTC and this year it is bigger and better than ever.

Say what? “Supersize” Quote Competition By now you should have noticed one or two of the super-sized quotes around the school. We hope you like them. As wise as the words are and as famous the people are that said them, we would like you to come up with your own.
XLP Borough Finals
In tutor time, we want you to come up with an inspirational quote about the importance of education. You can write something between you or find a quote in a book that you like - either way, the winning entry will be made “supersize” and put up on the wall in The Street with your names underneath. Please write your name, tutor group and idea on a piece of paper and post it in a Voice Box. Good luck! www.bgtc.org.uk/wordonthestreet

What’s in a name? Competition Time Again
Miss Gledhill is running a competition for students and staff to come up with a name for our new internet cafe area. You may want to incorporate ideas that reflect the global nature of internet communications as well as the bright and colour ful plants and flowers that surround the area. Oh and don’t forget the fish. So, if you have an idea for a name or a logo, or if you like any of the suggestions so far that include “The Wifi Garden”, “The Rainforest”, “eDen” and “The Global Cafe”, draw your design on the template (left) and post it in a Voice Box. The best idea will be turned into a giant banner like those with the tube maps on them. Don’t forget to include your name!
Puzzled? Mr. Pedley’s Weekly Brainteaser Competition
