As the principal of this vibrant and caring school since 2019, it is a privilege to lead a community that is deeply rooted in the values of faith, respect, and lifelong learning, central to our Roman Catholic ethos.
In St. Gabriel’s N.S. childhood is valued and confidence, skills and knowledge are developed in our pupils to face the challenges of the 21st century. We provide a top quality, child-centered and very active educational program for all in our care.
