Bly Twomey, Anna Nicholson and Olivia Broome won bronze medals for Great Britain to start day eight of the Paralympics in Paris.
Twomey, 14, claimed her second table tennis medal of the Games in the women’s WS7 singles.
Nicholson was third in the women’s S35 shot put and Broome took bronze in the women's -50kg powerlifting.
Britain have won 77 medals, including 33 gold. Only China, who have 64 golds and 142 in total, have more.
Twomey takes second bronze
Twomey was in semi-final action and was already guaranteed at least a bronze medal, knowing that victory over Turkey’s Kubra Korkut would have promoted her to at least a silver.
The teenager got off to the perfect start to her semi-final, winning the first two sets 11-9 and 11-7.
Korkut, 30, more than twice Twomey’s age, fought back in the later sets to win the semi-final 3-2. She won the third set 11-6 and the fourth 11-5.
In the fifth and deciding set, Korkut took a 6-0 lead before taking it with an 11-5 victory following a fightback from Twomey.
Twomey won bronze in the WD14 women’s doubles alongside Felicity Pickard earlier in the Games.
Nicholson wins first medal
Britain's first medal on Thursday came inside the Stade de France as Nicholson claimed bronze in the women’s F35 shot put final, winning her first career Paralympic medal.
Nicholson, 29, sealed bronze with a second-round throw of 9.44m, a throw she was unable to top in her final four throws.
In the women's T38 long jump final Olivia Breen fractionally missed out on winning a bronze of her own.
Breen’s best jump of 4.99m was enough to put her in third place but was beaten by Colombia’s Karen Tatiana Palomeque Moreno, who matched Breen’s best jump but beat Breen by having a better second best jump.
Maddie Down finished sixth with a personal best of 4.81m.
In the women's F64 shot put, Funmi Oduwaiye finished fifth with a best throw of 11.27m, 50cm shy of the medal places.
Broome completes bronze hat-trick
Broome said she was going to treat herself to pizza after winning her second consecutive Paralympic powerlifting bronze with a lift of 119kg.
Having competed in the up to 55kg division this year, she needed to drop weight for Paris.
"This is probably one of my easier weight cuts. I haven’t struggled with it as much and have done it right so it has been a lot easier," said Broome.
"The first thing I will eat now is pizza. On Wednesday after the weigh-in I was delighted because I could have pasta.
"I’ve had food scales with me at the food hall in the athletes' village and weighing everything I eat, so after weigh-in was done, I could put those away."
