The Bermuda High School is a school in Pembroke, Bermuda. It is an all-girls academic school. This school is for ages 5–17, offering the International Baccalaureate programme. It is also a Round Square School and offers The Duke of Edinburgh's Award. The Bermuda High School hosted the Young Round Square of the Americas (YRSA) conference in 2007.
This is a ceremony that takes place every year as current students and old girls gather in a spiral circle in order of youngest to oldest. The Head Girl walks through the spiral carrying the school's torch. Each girl touches the torch with their right hand as she passes by, signifying the passing of the torch. The first ceremony was in May 1937. It is always conducted on a Thursday. The ceremony is carried out in complete silence as the torch barrier walks the torch around the continuous spiral.[1]
