27–29 November 2026, Suva, Fiji
65th Blue Sapphire Anniversary
65 years since four humble classrooms rose from a scrub-covered hillside — built entirely on faith, and now debt-free in legacy.
Overview
A weekend of remembrance, renewal and resolve
Leading up to the main celebration, our “65 Days to 65 Years — Claim a Day” campaign runs from 24 September to 27 November 2026, inviting ex-scholars, families, class groups and decade groups to claim a day — each representing one year of our history — and give back in their own meaningful way, at their own initiative.
We invite all ex-scholars across Fiji and around the world to lend their presence, prayers and support: your participation in the March and Class Soli will honour our shared history, your attendance at the Prayer Breakfast and Thanksgiving Service will lift our school in gratitude, and your pledge will help sustain the Scripture Department and future generations of Gospel scholars.
Central to our Jubilee is heartfelt recognition of our founder, Mr J. Foster Crane, the pioneering overseas volunteers and local builders, and every Principal, teacher and Trustee whose faith and labour carried Gospel Schools from one classroom block to a full Kindergarten-to-Form 6 institution.
65 Days to 65 Years
Claim a day, give back in your own way
From Day 2 to Day 64 (24 September–26 November 2026), each day represents one year of our proud history. It doesn’t have to be big — a small act of kindness, a reunion, a donation, or support for a school need. What matters is the spirit of giving.
1. Claim a day
Individuals, families, classes and decade groups register the day they’d like to claim.
2. Plan something meaningful
A reunion, an act of service, or support for a specific school need.
3. Give back
Carry it out in your own way, in your own time, in the spirit of Gospel family.
The programme
Four days, one Gospel family
65 Days to 65 Years – Launch Programme
OpenJoin us for the official launch of GESA's "65 Days to 65 Years" campaign — a joyful celebration marking the start of our countdown to the Blue Sapphire Anniversary. The morning brings student performances, a word of prayer, and testimonies spanning generations of Gospel scholars, from our pioneers through the 80s, 90s and 00s decades. We'll unveil the anniversary banner, cut the celebration cake, and launch this very website to the public — before closing in blessing and fellowship over refreshments.
