Home Grown Talent!

Today we continue our series of informative flashbacks through our school's history. The first photo, taken in the year 2000 shows our victorious U-15 Zonal School Athletics Champions.

Holding the trophy in the centre was one of the stars of our school team, a young gentleman and current national Olympic hero by the name of...Marc Burns!

The year was 1967, the place was the Queens Park Oval, and the event was the 800m final at our BBSS sports. The superb athlete on the left just pipping his second place rival was no other than Mr. Albert King, who is even more famous some 41 years after as our highly successful Athletics coach and esteemed senior member of our teaching staff today.
Just a small sample of the talent we continue to produce at BBSS!

Already a veteran triathelete at age 15, Neville promises to be a serious prospect to represent our nation at the next Junior Olympics.
