Boarding Bulletin
Clayfield College
A Place of Belonging
Last Saturday morning was a very early start and a wet outing for our boarders who attended the ANZAC Day Dawn Service held at Anzac Square in the City. This is such a special day of commemoration and remembrance for all Australians and New Zealanders who served and died in all peacekeeping operations, conflicts and wars. Our Boarding House students are always proud to attend. Of course, they always appreciate the breakfast stop at McDonalds after the service with Dr Cousins.
Thank you to Boarding Captains, Shelley and Sally who laid our wreath after the service.
On Sunday night we held our first theme dinner for the term organised by Radcliffe House. The theme was dress as your Superhero.
Our Director of Senior School, Natasha Podoliak and I are looking forward to catching up with our boarding families, past and present, at the Goondiwindi Aspects Art Show and Family Dinner this weekend.
