Bishops was well represented at holiday-time cricket festivals staged at various locations across South Africa. The 1st XI, competing in the annual Cape Schools Cricket Week hosted in Cape Town and Stellenbosch, overcame the disappointment of a first-day wash-out vs Grey High School, to go four from four in the remaining matches, with convincing wins against Selborne; Queens and Union (twice). The 17A team represented the school at the Michaelhouse festival and, despite defeats to St Charles; Hilton and the hosts, returned to Cape Town having registered a 100-run a win against Michaelhouse. The 15A team headed to the Grey Colts Festival in Gqeberha and, without ever fully hitting their straps, had to settle for a rain-affected draw against Grey College; lost to St Andrew's College in a game played in Makhanda and finished the tour strongly with back-to-back wins against Paarl Gym and Menlo Park. The 14A boys struggled, initially, at the Charl van Rooyen Week, hosted by Selborne College in East London, and lost to Waterkloof; Affies and Jeppe. The tour, however, concluded on a high with a win against Kearsney.
