Kristan Bromley Award June 2006
BRGS students attended a ceremony at Rossendale
Ski Slope at which former student and Winter Olympics competitor
in the skeleton bob, Kristan Bromley, was awarded with a Rossendale
Alive medal in recognition of his achievements. Kristan starting
skiiing on the slope when he was 13.
Richard Bromley, Kristan's brother and coach, planted a tree
in Whitaker Park in honour of the technical and personal support
he provides to the British team.
Kristan enjoyed meeting BRGS students and said: "That
was my favourite bit - it is great to be among the youngsters
again. I remember listening to guest speakers at the school
myself and they were really interesting days for me. The questions
went from which teachers we had there then to what I was thinking
at the top of the run - it made me re-live it a bit."
