Gibbons Gala 2026

Breaking Bread Together

Saturday, March 14

Our cafeteria has always been more than a place to eat-it's where friendships form, and community grows. Now, we're reimagining this space to reflect the energy and spirit of our school.

Your support will help create a welcoming, modern hub for our students. Together, we can transform our cafeteria into a place of nourishment, connection, and joy
 
Our vision
Vibrant dining space that brings the community together.

• Flexible, comfortable seating for meals, study, and fellowship.
• Refreshed design to support student activities, club meetings, and events.
• Cafe-style gathering spaces for collaboration and connection.
