Clayfield on Tour
Greetings from Taipei! As advised in last week’s Collective, I am currently on our first international marketing trip for the year with our Principal, Dr Cousins, and Director of Advancement, Emma Dixon.
We will fly to Hong Kong on Friday to continue the tour with attendance at the annual AAS Education Consultancy exhibition on Saturday. I will return to the Boarding House on Thursday 19 March.
Please contact Tina Mills, our Assistant Director of Boarding, in my absence on 0409 582 480 or tmills@clayfield.qld.edu.au.
End of Term 1
A reminder, if you have not already done so, to please supply us with your child’s end of Term 1 and beginning of Term 2 travel plans.
The Boarding House will officially close for Term 1 at 4:00pm on Thursday 2 April. No students can remain in the Boarding House after this time. Students can depart after 3:15pm on Wednesday 1 April. Airport transfers will be available from 3:30pm on Wednesday 1 April through to 4:00pm Thursday 2 April.
Term 2 Commencement
Students may return to the Boarding House from Monday 20 April from 6:30am as school commences on Tuesday 21 April. All boarders are expected to be in-house by 4:30pm on Monday 20 April.
Airport collections are available only on Boarder Travel Day, Monday 20 April, including late night international arrivals. If your child requires transport outside this date, families will need to arrange alternative transport.
A copy of your child's flight itinerary for end of Term 1 and beginning of Term 2 travel is required for the organisation of airport transfers.
Please complete the Leave Arrangements 2026 form below if you are collecting your child or require airport transfers and send to boarding@clayfield.qld.edu.au with the collection and return dates and times.
If your child is departing early in Term 1 or arriving late for Term 2, prior College approval is required before you make travel arrangements.
