There were some amazing creations from our Year 7s. They have been studying medieval castles and they were tasked with building models and trying to incorporate all the different things they had learned about the castles. It was great to see so many of the castles' features incorporated in the models.

Well done to the students and their teachers!

1st Lauren Montado
2nd Ashton Balloqui
3rd John Tinnion

History students who had received the students of the month award went on a guided trip to the Northern Defences. It was a great morning out!

It is wonderful to see our students volunteer to be ambassadors for GibSams. They have lots of ideas which they are keen to share and great enthusiasm. Thank you and well done!

During the last few days of term 1 we set up the static bikes and attempted to cycle the distant to lapland. This year we had much encouragement from our younger students!

​Thank you everyone for all the support.

Who thought paper aeroplanes could be so much fun!
The science department organised  this as part of our end of term fun. The students designed their planes and then competed against each other to see which plane could go furthest. 

As has become customary since we moved to this new building, a member of staff and a senior student have been wearing a Christmas Hat since 1st December. Mr Crisp has been particularly creative and he took a selfie every day. 

​Ms Azzopardi from the PE department thought it would be fun to organise a small tournament and have the students play against the teachers. It was great fun and much more popular that she imagined!

The doors were judged on the basis of design, sustainability and originality. The winners were:

The English Department rewarded their pupils of the month with a bowling trip this week. The pupils were impeccably behaved and they had a great time.
