  Fri 08 Mar 2019
  The children really enjoyed celebrating 'World Book Day.' The parade in the hall showcased the brilliant efforts made by the children and their parents/carers. The older children then shared stories with younger children. Lots of book-themed activities followed. The day finished with the book fair in the hall. Thank you to parents for supporting the day by providing amazing costumes,  donations to 'Book Aid' and attending the book fair.

  

• Inter-school Spelling Bee

  Tue 05 Mar 2019
  What an exciting Inter-School Spelling Bee today! Our children competed with St. Mary’s, St. Joseph’s and Holy Cross in a very close final. Isaac, Lucie and Zak, for Year 3, did an amazing job, coming first and winning a lovely trophy for the school. Elliott, Grace and Matthew, for Year 4, also performed very well but Holy Cross were the winners. The children knew the Year 3/4 words so well that the Y5/6 words had to be used in the deciding rounds. Well done to all the schools involved. We are especially proud of our children who were great ambassadors for St. Gilbert’s. We look forward to the Y5/6 Spelling Bee in a few weeks.
