In every tournament our girls and boys thoroughly enjoyed the day and demonstrated excellent sportsmanship and behaviour both on and off the games. The fantastic atmosphere created by our students in all these events resulted in many memorable moments of tremendous value for both students and teachers.
All members of staff of The British College feel extremely proud of your effort and achievement!
Congratulations and massive thanks to all the students who contributed to enlarge the world of sport at The British College.
