David Rowe
We were sorry to hear about the death of David Rowe, former Headmaster of The Gilberd School, 1976 - 1994. A service to celebrate his life will be held at St Mary's Church, Stoke by Nayland CO6 4QU on Tuesday 3rd December 2024 at 10:30am, with "Coffee Morning" at Stoke by Nayland Village Hall. Donations to Oxfam.
Mr Rowe was Headmaster of the Gilberd during the transition from North Hill to Highwoods. He gave two notable interviews to the Gazette during this period. In May 1980, Mr Rowe highlighted that he still didn't know for sure if the school he was opening in September at Highwoods would be a Comprehensive, Grammar or hybrid school! (If you click on the articles below you will be able to view them in higher quality.)
Then in June 1985 he spoke about the closing of the North Hill site.
Our thoughts are with David's wife, Barbara, at this sad time.
