St Gabriel's Joins Jamie Oliver's Guinness World Record Attempt! Last week, pupils from Years 8–10 stepped into the record books as they took part in Jamie Oliver's live-streamed cooking lesson, aiming to set the Guinness World Record for the largest ever online cooking class. Alongside 700+ schools and around 10,000 participants nationwide, our Food Tech Room buzzed with energy as pupils (and staff!) whipped up homemade pasta in a delicious tomato sauce all in just one hour! A huge thank you to Mrs Edwards for organising the ingredients and submitting our evidence for official verification, and to Mrs Chapman and Mrs Knott for joining in the culinary fun. #StGabriels #GuinnessWorldRecord #JamieOliver #CookingChallenge #Teamwork #PastaPower #FoodTechFun #schoolsinberkshire
Senior Sports Day 2025 On Thursday 3 July, the Senior School gathered at Crookham Common Athletics Track for a fantastic day of sporting achievement and school spirit. Pupils competed in a full programme of events from sprints and long-distance runs to long jump and vortex throws with parents, staff and classmates cheering them on every step of the way. House spirit was at an all-time high, with pupils proudly sporting body paint, tutus, banners and pom-poms. The ice cream van also kept everyone cool in the sunshine! A massive well done to Chad House, who just edged into first place in what was a very close competition. We're so proud of every pupil who took part – it was a brilliant day celebrating effort, teamwork and fun. More photos to follow soon! #StGabrielsSchool #SeniorSportsDay #SchoolCommunity #ChadHouse #HouseCompetition #Teamwork #PupilPride #IndependentSchoolLife #Newbury
Curiosity in Action at the Year 6 Science Fair! On Tuesday, our Year 6 pupils wowed us with their creativity and scientific flair at the annual Science Fair held in the school marquee. From erupting volcanoes and meteor impacts to mouldy food investigations and a pop-up planetarium, pupils showcased their incredible projectseach one chosen and researched independently. Parents joined us for a special morning walk-through, where pupils confidently presented their posters and demonstrated hands-on experiments, making it a truly interactive and exciting event! Winners will be announced soon, but every pupil deserves a round of applause for their hard work and enthusiasm! #StGabriels #ScienceFair #YoungScientists #STEMinAction #Year6 #Science #SchoolsInBerkshire #Newbury #independentschools

Our annual Junior Swimming Gala saw pupils from Years 3 to 6 take to the pool in over 50 races, cheered on by an enthusiastic crowdincluding our youngest pupils in Reception, Years 1 and 2. From impressive individual performances to brilliant team spirit in the House relays, there was plenty to celebrate. Congratulations to Chad House for taking the overall win, and a special shoutout to Elodie (Year 6), winner of the St Gabriel's Capability Cup for the Individual Medley! A huge well done to all our swimmers for their determination, effort and camaraderie.

We're over the moon to share that our Senior School production of Sister Act has WON the Best Ensemble award at the 2025 National School Theatre Awards! The performance, which took place in March at the Arlington Arts Theatre, was described by NSTA judges as: "More than just a school play, this was a celebration of acceptance, empowerment, and the sheer joy of musical theatre, creating memories that will undoubtedly resonate for years to come." St Gabriel's was up against more than 60 top schools from across the country, and we're beyond proud of our cast and crew for this outstanding recognition. Additional congratulations go to Apple, Lizzie and Issy (Year 11), who were individually nominated for Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Female Musical Solo. Huge congratulations to all involvedyou've made St Gabriel's history! #StGabrielsSchool #SisterAct2025 #NSTA2025 #BestEnsemble #AwardWinningPerformance #PerformingArts #MusicalTheatre #ProudSchoolMoment #SeniorSchool #Newbury #SchoolsInBerkshire
Happy Father's Day from all of us at St Gabriel's! This week, we were delighted to welcome dads from across Babies, Toddlers and Pre-school into the Nursery for our Father's Stay and Play sessions. The mornings began with bacon and sausage sandwiches and fresh coffee, before heading into the rooms for some quality playtime with their little ones. From racing around the playground, digging in the sand pits and sharing stories, to trying on costumes and enjoying plenty of giggles! Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make it so special. Wishing all our families a very Happy Father's Day! #StGabriels #FathersDay #StayAndPlay #NurseryEvents #DadAndMe #EarlyYearsMagic #StGabrielsNursery
