SASS Recognition Week

THS celebrated School Support Recognition Week, an opportunity for us to celebrate school administrative and support staff (SASS) and other non-teaching staff and the essential role they play in public education. We would like to thank & formally acknowledge the important roll SASS and other non-teaching staff are to Tenterfield High School. Our SASS staff were treated to a special afternoon tea as a small token of our appreciation.
