Gilbrook School, Birkenhead, Wirral
World Book Day - Optional Dress up - NO Football Kits/tracksuits Thursday 5th March is World Book Day. To celebrate, we will be doing lots of book themed activities throughout the day and taking time out to read our favourite stories. If your child would like to dress up they may come to school as a book character. We appreciate that not all of our children like to dress up. Therefore this is completely optional. If your child does not want to come as a book character they should wear school uniform as normal, pupils are not allowed to wear football kits or tracksuits. We will look forward to seeing some inventive costumes on the day and may even have a few prizes to give out too! Many Thanks, Mrs Chapman-Roberts

We are Friends of Gilbrook, a registered charity (charity number: 514898) to raise money for Gilbrook School. This is a school for pupils with social, emotional and mental health.

At FOG, we work tirelessly every year to help support our pupils’ needs with sensory equipment, educational trips and learning resources. FOG also support our pupils with their social development and provide them with memorable experiences, they may not otherwise get.

We do this by subsidising pupils’ residential trips. We raise these funds by hosting fundraising events, fairs, raffles and tombolas. While we have made some great strides, FOG has really struggled to host events and raise money for our pupils and we still have a lot to accomplish.

We would be hugely grateful if you could consider donating any items towards our Christmas Fair and rafffle which will be held on December 18th, to help us to achieve our mission in supporting the pupils’ of Gilbrook School.

If you have any questions, I would be happy to provide you with more information about how you can help support our work at FOG. We greatly appreciate your donation.

Sincerely, Angie Walters, FOG member
