Dear Parents and Carers
It has been an incredibly busy term in Middle and Senior School. If you don’t follow our sector Facebook page, I would really encourage you to join so that you can see pictures and videos of the many activities that shape life at Calvary for our students. Here is the link to the Facebook page if you haven’t joined already: https://www.facebook.com/groups/calvaryccmss2023
Currently we are enjoying Arts week in the high school and this will culminate in a competitive house choral competition on Friday. Our last day of school for the term is also a free dress day (gold coin charity donation). Just a reminder that the first Monday of Term 3 is a pupil free day and school does not resume until Tuesday 11th July.
Many of our Year 12 students will be travelling over the holiday break on their snow tour. We will pray for a safe travelling experience for them (and hopefully some snow!). I hope that all our students (and any parents who get a break) have a peaceful, restful, and well-deserved winter holiday break.
Yours sincerely
Josh Wilson
Head of Middle and Senior School and Innovative Learning Design

Free Dress
Students will be allowed to attend school in Free Dress tomorrow for a gold coin donation (where funds will be used to support our Children of Compassion across the College). The theme for this term's Free Dress is "House Colours” Students are reminded to adhere to the College Free Dress Policy to avoid being sent home.

CAPA is rejuvenating its Springwood & Carbrook spaces and we’d love your help by contributing to the Building Fund!

CARBROOK BUILDING FUND - $20,000
Refurbish the ensemble room (new flooring & paint, external entrance)
Renovate bathrooms & change rooms
Create an outdoor performance space
