House System
When a pupil joins BGS he is allocated into one of four Houses, Crosby, Dufferin, School or Ward and his house colour is worn as two stripes above the school badge on his blazer. Each House has two Senior Prefects, The Head and Deputy of House, who run the fortnightly House Assemblies and help organise and support the competitions that run throughout the year such as The Junior and Senior Quizzes, the Junior Drama Competition, House hockey and rugby, Junior and Senior Debating and House Chess. During Prize Day the winning House is announced and the incoming House Prefects collect the House Cup, awarded in memory of Miss Amanda Chapman, a former teacher at the school. Competition is fierce throughout the year.
