Staff Update - Welcome to Mrs Gilbert, Mrs Bates and Mrs McVicar
Mrs Gilbert - Campus Principal, Gore Campus
My name is Sarah Gilbert and my family and I moved from Dunedin to Gore in early 2022. I have been teaching for 17 years including one year at East Gore School as Deputy Principal where I spent a term as Acting Principal. I was at Kaikorai Primary School for 8 year as Assistant Principal. During my time there I completed a lot of professional learning around modern and innovative learning environments, I spent a lot of time developing teachers and how we would teach in preparation for our move into brand new school buildings. I know find myself working in a brand new school and am very proud to be working with such a dedicated staff, students and community.
