It has been inspiring to witness the remarkable strides and improvements our athletes have made throughout the year. Their dedication, hard work and sportsmanship have truly shone through, both on and off the field.
Yet again it has been another very successful year of sport at BSD and we continue to make sporting history in all of our competitions entered. Our teams came away with 6 SAIKAC/BSME Championships and nine other teams placed in the top three. Our individual athletes accumulated 13 gold medals, seven silver and five bronze across swimming, cross country and athletics.
Some history-making moments included: winning the girls football treble, reaching a boys basketball SAIKAC final and having two BSD teams in a SAIKAC final for badminton. In addition, we continue to grow and enter BSME U11, U13 and U15 games which is a superb achievement.
As we reflect on this past year's successes, we are immensely proud of each and every one of our students. Their passion for sports and commitment to excellence serve as a testament to their character and determination.
