Last week we played our second game of Football this season against 'The Milestone School'. It was a good spirited and respectful match and both teams fought hard to win.
Staff from both schools were very impressed by the talent and the sportsmanship displayed by both sides.
We have had a super busy week here at Bettridge with visits to Father Christmas, Christmas dinners, class parties and two wonderful assemblies put on by our amazing students and staff.
Thank you to everyone who makes Bettridge such a special place. Merry Christmas
