We couldn't help but share our most recent entry from Miss Mordue: Her gorgeous dog Yuki enjoying the snowy Sunday :)

Last week we launched Gilson's Virtual One Positive Thing Initiative.
The idea is for all Gilson pupils and teachers to share one positive thing that has happened to them during the week.

Feel free to join in and use the hashtag #gilsonpositivething.

And to finish off, we have a very inspiring quote from Mrs Krause:
'After all, the unexpected, even the tragic, can have a transformative power that goes beyond the hedonic or eudaemonic. As a great Leonard Cohen song says, it's the cracks that let the light come in.'

Absolutely brilliant!

One of our many talented girls, well done Nicole! Gilson House is very proud of you!

Year 13 student and talented rower, Nicole Dunn secured herself a sponsor during lockdown to keep her hopes of competing for team GB alive. This included a new single skull boat so she could keep training on the water. Find out more here https://t.co/KDUafZECMu #ShiplakeRowing

A few weeks ago, the Shiplake College girls undertook the challenge of completing 1000 km via running, walking and cycling in order to raise £1000 to sponsor a child in Africa, also supported by Gap Africa Charity.

We can proudly say we're already half-way there (~562.6 km).
