From the 30th March to the 3rd April, the Geography department took 20 of their students to Iceland for a fantastic field trip. If we’re talking about the ancient feud between the History and Geography Departments, Geography is definitely in the lead! The trip began at 7.15am in the BGS canteen and didn’t finish until 10pm Monday night on the 3rd. 

Last week marked the start of new friendships, discoveries and experiences for the Year 10 students who study Spanish and are involved in the exchange trip. As the first leg of the exchange, we received Spanish students from Colegio Marista in Málaga.

Oops, we did it again! On the 4th May 2017, 5 members of Bexley Grammar’s Chameleon Dental competed in Citi Bank, Canary Wharf against the qualifiers of the regional finals for Young Enterprise’s Best company in East London.

Before I tell you about how I spent a week at Bexley Grammar School (BGS), I want to tell you some reasons why I wanted to take part in this program. First, I wanted to improve my English skills and try to use my English with native English speakers. Second, I’m interested in the lifestyle of the English people. Finally, I wanted to make a lot of friends.

This year’s big school concert took place on Monday evening this week, and featured a wide range of school ensembles. There was a wide range of  music  on display,  including music from the opera, Carmen by Bizet, performed by Symphony Orchestra; Senior Choir performed a medley of music by McFly, and Chamber Choir impressed with their interpretations of Disney classics ‘When She Loved Me’ from Toy Story and a new take on the Monkey song from the Jungle Book.

We were fortunate to host a group of students from Japan on an exchange trip. On the 1^st March my fellow host students and I went to London with the Japanese students.
