THE PONG - LET'S GO!
On Thursday 18th September BHCS will be hosting our 2025 Ping-Pong-A-Thon.
This annual event has become an important date in the life of our school community and reflects our ethos that inspires us to Act Justly, Love Mercy and Walk Humbly (Micah 6:8).
The aim of the day is to raise awareness and much needed funds to promote human freedom, whilst having some fun and building community in the process.
Over the years this has become our flagship fundraising event, with over $220,000 in total raised since 2016.
Here is all the information!
