🌟 A Fantastic First Half Term for Year 7! 🌟
It has been wonderful to see how well our new Year 7 cohort has settled into life at The Gatwick School during their first half term.
As part of our culture of reflection and personal growth, students completed their TGS Passport Postcard, looking back on their achievements, experiences and the positive contributions they have made since joining us.
From developing new skills and friendships to demonstrating our values of Learn Well, Live Well, Lead Well and Leave a Legacy, our Year 7 students have already made an excellent start to their journey at TGS.
We are incredibly proud of all they have achieved and look forward to seeing them continue to flourish throughout the year.

This week, we were delighted to welcome Year 6 students from Forge Wood Primary School to our school!
Students had the opportunity to experience life as a secondary school student, taking part in a carousel of exciting lessons including Food Technology, Drama, and Design & Technology.
From getting creative with hands-on activities to exploring new subjects, it was fantastic to see their enthusiasm, confidence, and excitement grow throughout the day.
We look forward to welcoming them again in the future and supporting them on their journey to secondary school! 🎓✨

🏆 History made!
Leopards are the first Primary class to win the Attendance Award this academic year! 🎉
With an incredible 98% attendance this term, including two weeks of 100% attendance, they came out on top over four weeks and thoroughly earned this achievement.
A huge thank you to Oxygen Crawley @oxygenactiveplay for inviting us before their grand opening and giving our students exclusive use and helping make this possible.
Well done, Leopards, we are so proud of their commitment and dedication.
