Boarding Bulletin
Clayfield College
A Place to Belong
We have passed the halfway mark for Term 4, and what a wonderfully busy term it has been so far!
Last weekend was full of fun and laughter. On Saturday night we enjoyed a dress-up themed dinner with the dining room spooky theme and dance-off a huge success. We then headed out trick-or-treating around the local area. A group of our boarders then spent Sunday at a pool party at Nudgee College. This coming Sunday, we are looking forward to another pool party at Marist Ashgrove.
With exams approaching, our evening Prep time is a hive of activity, and we are so grateful for the generous tutors who support our boarders each night. A heartfelt thank you to our Old Collegians Caitlin, Dimity, Hana, Rachael, Georgina, Jasmine, Tia, Vivian and Erica, our external tutors Suzanne and Ella, and school staff Ms Lennon and Dr G, who are such constants in our boarders' lives. We appreciate you all.
As we begin the second half of the final term, we warmly ask families to let us know your child's end of term travel arrangements as soon as you can, if you haven't already, by emailing us at: boarding@clayfield.qld.edu.au.
A friendly reminder that the term ends for boarders on Wednesday 2 December at 12:50pm. From 12:50pm on Wednesday through to 4:30pm on Thursday 3 December is our Boarder Travel Day. Please note that airport transfers are provided by the Boarding House only during this time.
