Mr G was hands down the best, fairest and kindest teacher our three children were privileged to be taught by. Mr G knew how to brighten everyone’s day without even trying and when they needed a listening ear, he always went above and beyond for those who needed his help or wanted to learn. The world has certainly lost one of the greats. May he now rest in peace and those he leaves behind find comfort in knowing just how many lives he touched and made a difference to.

Condolences to Mr Gardner's family. We will remember him as a very kind, patient, talented teacher.

Although I did not know Mr Gardner myself, my two boys Mac and Zen, talk fondly of him and the music lessons they enjoyed at school. I can sense their sadness in this news but also know he helped to create wonderful memories around music with inspiring lessons each week. Our condolences to the family for their loss.
