Under the leadership of Darren Gill, Gill Sports has been organising and running sports courses for children for the past 18 years. Whether you fancy yourself as a budding Andy Murray or Lionel Messi, or just like the idea of meeting new friends and having some fun, these courses have something for everyone!

A timetable of classes will run from 2nd to 13th April 2012 and will include tennis, kwik-cricket, street dance, football and many other activities. These courses may be booked individually or together to offer maximum flexibility. Adults need not be disappointed, as there is also the opportunity for parents and other adults to book onto a tennis course during the evenings.

A green economy is good for business and nowhere more so than in Norfolk and Suffolk.

We would be delighted if you can join us and other local businesses and organisations to celebrate the New Anglia Green Economy Pathfinder.

The Green Economy Pathfinder celebrates business initiatives which contribute a large art of the UK’s ambition to develop EU and global markets for green goods and services. The Pathfinder is a “Unique Selling Point” for businesses across Norfolk and Suffolk.

The event will feature many businesses that demonstrate a cutting edge approach to the green economy, a market place and the opportunity to network with other like-minded businesses.

If you would like to attend this free event and to take advantage of the market place, please view the Flyer for this event.

The four Gresham’s students tackled three gruelling rounds of mathematical problems and equations and managed to see off competitors from sixteen independent and state schools from East Anglia to make it to the national final, which will take place in London in February.

Reflecting on the victory, Deputy Head (Academic) David Miles said “The team performed outstandingly well, making only three errors throughout the three hour competition. They gained a total of 163 out of 176 points, outperforming the second place team by 46 points. We wish the team well in the National Final.”
