6W wrote a poem with a partner based on the book they are currently reading in English, 'Floodlands', by Marcus Sedgwick. They performed their poems in the new amphitheatre focussing on expression, volume and gesture to bring the poem to life and engage the audience. #BGSfamily

They say there’s no such thing as bad weather, only the wrong clothes, right…? Well done to all the pupils and staff making the most of it all, despite the torrential downpours at Y7 camp! Smiling faces all around. Was glad I took my wellies! BGS Outdoor Ed #BGSFamily

We often get #squirrels scampering past the Bradford Grammar library windows, so here is a suitably autumnal #poem by #RobertGibb about the North American cousin of the squirrel - the #chipmunk . #bgsfamily #lovetoread #lovepoetry #RfP 🐿️📚

This week, we’ve been making the most of the autumn sunshine. Have a lovely weekend, everybody. #BGSfamily

The aftermath of our first Year 7 Book Club gathering yesterday, lovely to see familiar faces previously @juniorgrammar as well as pupils new to BGS. Lots of great book blether, recommendations and a discussion on #bannedbooks. #bookclub #bgsfamily

Our Year 1 children have created a colour wheel predicting items found in nature and then enjoyed a hunt to find the matching items. #outdooradventures #BGSfamily

On this misty #September morning, what could be more appropriate than this autumnal #poemoftheweek ? Rosalie Dunlap Hickler brings alive the different colours and senses that we associate with #autumn. Have a lovely week 🍂🍁#bgsfamily #lovetoread #lovepoetry #bgslibrary

Simply stunning. Well done, Miranda. Brilliantly deserved and we couldn’t be prouder of you. #BGSFamily

The short list for the Diverse Book Awards was announced yesterday - lots of titles available to borrow from the BGS Clarkson library (many out on loan already!) The winner is announced on 10 October. #diversebookawards #readingforplease #reading #bgsfamily #bradfordgrammar

10 Years ago this summer we moved out of the old Clarkson library in order for the transformation to begin! BGS now have a state of the art library! BGS Archives #schoollibrary #bgsfamily #Reading

Glorious first day of sports block fixtures yesterday - 20 matches, dozens on f BGS debuts, warm and dry (just!) - a miracle for #FortressFailand! Welcome back Sport at BGS, we’ve missed you over the summer! #ProudtobeBGS #BGSFamily

Wow, wow, wow! After two days of brilliant, innovative and inspiring training (I am in awe of my team here at BristolGrammarSchool) today we finally have the children in! Amazing, positive, buzzing. A feeling we must never forget in the profession! Welcome to the new year, all! #BGSFamily
