GIBSON

IN PURPLE WE UNITE, JOIN THE GIBSON FIGHT #GIBSONHOOD

T he year began with another successful Gibson House party, with purple flooding the Pool Lawn as our House reconnected and strengthened the ‘Gibsonhood’. Gibson’s spirit was first displayed at the Interhouse Swimming Carnival in Term 1. Our loud stomps, cheers and war cries echoed throughout the complex with overwhelming support for our fellow Gibson swimmers. Later in Term 1, our House spirit was demonstrated again at the Interhouse Cross Country Carnival. It was heart-warming

to see Gibsonites cheer, encourage and run beside their Gibson sisters as they crossed the finish line. Our efforts clearly paid off as Gibson placed third. In Term 2, Gibson rehearsed tirelessly to perform the choral rendition of Don’t Stop Believin’ . While we did not win, we enjoyed learning the dance moves and harmonies to this classic song. In Term 3, Gibson girls joined together at Open Day to raise money for our House Charity, the Lady Musgrave Trust. The Trust provides life-saving services to women and their children experiencing homelessness.

Through our Strawberries and Ice-cream stall, we raised $2362. Thank you to our Gibson House Group teachers and to our Head of House, Mrs Boltman, for all your help, care and organisation this year. Of course, we thank our fellow Gibson sisters for embracing our goals and being a part of the ‘Gibsonhood.’ Chelsea Davidson and Jessica Xu HOUSE CAPTAINS
