This Friday, BGTC would like to invite students and staff to “Go Pink” for Breast Cancer Awareness Day. If you’d like to take part and wear something pink we would also love it if you could make a 50p donation or as much as you can afford. All the money raised will go to Breast Cancer Care and Breakthrough. Additional information will be distributed during the week and a special powerpoint will be sent out to tutors to share with their class on the day. Pin badges will be available to buy on the day too. All students will be expected to wear FULL school uniform as normal, therefore please limit your pink clothing to one item such as an accessory, hair band, scarf, shoe laces or tie.

BGTC NEWS 2 November 2009 Find Your Future Year 11 ‘Careers Market Day’ Last Wednesday was ʻCareers Market Dayʼ at BGTC. We were privileged to have a number of visiting experts from a wide range of professions, including the Army, R.A.F., BT, as well as Lawyers, Web Designers, Bankers, Hairdressers and many more. Well done to our ʻEnrichmentʼ Team (in pink below) and all the Year 11 students who looked smart and acted smart too. You should all be really proud and hopefully youʼre now a little nearer to ʻfinding your future!ʼ Dragons’ Den Winners Who needs a haircut? Business as usual The BT Boys! Pretty In Pink BGTC supporting Breakthrough Breast Cancer Appeal A huge thank you to all the students and staff that helped raise both awareness and money for Breakthrough Breast Cancer on Friday. Everyone looked “pretty in pink”, indicating their support by switching an item of clothing to a particular hue of red. Just to show it wasnʼt all girls - Mr. Hart was sporting both a pink shirt and tie! A special “shout out” to Ms. Healy for organising the event - by lunchtime weʼd already raised £150.
