Bonjour! I had the wonderful opportunity to escort a group of GCCC students to France on a Study Tour over this last holiday break. I have returned reflecting on how amazing and diverse our world is – both culturally and historically. I would like to thank Mrs Whyte, Mrs Gordon, Miss Gook, Mrs Morris, Mr Vreeling and Mrs Fisher (parent) for assisting on this trip. While it may appear that these staff have had an amazing trip; they have also given up their holiday time to chaperone this group. Without their presence and work this remarkable experience could not have been offered to our students.

Middle School Experience Morning. Friday 17 October, 8.45 – 10.30am.

This is for students who will be in Year 7 next year. The session will begin with a combined parent and student session until 9.15am. Followed by morning tea for parents and three info sessions for students. These will be led by some of the Year 7 teachers and the Year Level Coordinator as well as assistance from some of our present Year 7 students. At 10.30am students can be picked up from the church or if they are in Year 6 at GCCC they will return to their regular class.

Awards Night. Tuesday 4 November 6.00pm for a 6.30 start. It is compulsory for all students to attend this event. Please make a note this date in your diaries. Students will need to attend in full school uniform. A booking sheet for seating will be be emailed out to parents closer to the date.
