The whole school community are warmly invited to join us for The Alumnae Friday Night Memorial Games at Bedford Girls’ School on Friday 4th September 2026.

The Old Girls’ Lacrosse match will be played in memory of Miss Joan Gibson, former Head of PE at Bedford High School from 1951 to 1972. Old Girls’ Hockey and Netball matches will be held in memory of Sarah Raven née Fisher, BHS 2004 and former PE teacher at Dame Alice Harpur School and Bedford Girls’ School.

The event at the start of the new school year will feature a series of First Team versus Old Girls’ matches in lacrosse, netball and hockey, with memorial awards presented following each match: the Joan Gibson Player of the Match (Lacrosse), the Fisher Cup (Netball), and the Sarah Raven Player of the Match Trophy (Hockey). 

We hope you can join us for all or part of this special evening celebrating sport, community and remembrance.
