Reception were delighted to find the mischievous #elfontheshelf had hidden itself in Mr Smith's office today! #ChristmasatStGabriels How did it get there? Has it been watching Mr Smith all day?

Fabulous morning for our Senior School Santa Fun Run. From serious runners to three legged ones and Y13 running in a reindeer and sleigh formation complete with Mrs and Mrs Claus, this event had it all, including a Spice Girls warm up routine. Ahead of Christmas lunch it was good to see a quartet of Pigs in Blankets too! Hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows to warm up after the mile run was a welcome treat.

Santa's Fun Run for Y5 & 6 started with a warm up with Mrs Stewart Power's Spice Girls. Can you work out who was selected as Sporty, Posh, Ginger, Scary and Baby Spice? Other visitors included Father Christmas on the start line and 3 elves! Fabulous Christmas jumpers and outfits from all involved. The hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows at the end was a big hit too! And yes, Mr Smith did do the Senior School Run too!
