The Year 7 quiz was won by Henry-Mikhal Lakhay and raul Bhatti being the brains. Our final piece of success was the 5-a-side football on Mondays after school. The Year 8 9 and 10 teams all being victorious. we have struggled to get merit points on the board and this has probably been the main reason we are 5th. However the only way is up for next year Bridge TrUsT sOCieTY The Bridge Trust society is the primary route for former pupils of Hgs to stay in contact with their friends and peers. Our age range is wide and offers those who will leave the school in 2015 the chance to meet and share experiences with their predecessors who attended the school up to 70 years previously. Our main social event every year is a dinner. we were joined by Leopold Johnson and rima Legah who told us about the sporting and academic achievements of the school last year. The society has always had a strong sporting tradition with sections for football cricket swimming and golf. Our sports ground in romilly avenue is very near to the schools ground and is home to both Football and Cricket Clubs. The swimming Club is based at Handsworth Leisure Centre and golf is played at various courses around the Birmingham area. The ground is our main social centre too with a Clubhouse and bar used by all our members. a big development programme is currently underway with the building of a new pavilion and hopefully the creation of an extra football pitch and upgrading the cricket square as we widen our role to become a community sports club hosting teams from all sectors of the local area. all at the school are welcome to join from year 7 for swimming a little older for the other sports. For all leaving Hgs in 2015 we offer one years free membership and to help those going on to University this is extended to the whole period of your degree course. we always have a meeting for leavers in the library before the end of term to explain more about us please come. Bridge Trust Golf Society 2014 The Golf Societys aim is to run four golf days and to hold a couple of social events at the Clubhouse. However we managed only two active days during the season as poor weather and other conicting events worked against us. We were at West Midlands GC in April and Patshull Park GC in June. Both events were great fun and while the quality of the golf was not high competition was erce. We are already planning the 2015 season and are anticipating a much fuller programme. The Golf Society is not only open to old boys but we would welcome current HGS pupils and teachers who are interested in getting involved in the great sporting traditions of the Bridge Trust. The focus is on a fun environment for golfers of all abilities to play some nice courses and enjoy loads of banter. Competition is there for those that want it but it is not the main focus of what we are trying to achieve. those that want it but it is not the main focus of what we are trying to achieve.
