Boarding News

Mrs Kathryn Searle - Head of Boarding

Congratulations to our boarders who received academic pockets at Tuesday’s Academic Awards Assembly for Semester 1:

  • Maeve Lloyd, Molly Sproat, Maegan Stoddart, Riley Taylor and Lexi Thurn (Year 7)
  • Rylee Scott and Mary Sproat (Year 8)
  • Demi de Tournoeur and Alice Wang (Year 9)
  • Layla Collins, Talie’e Hampton, Sally Sproat, Reese Taylor, Tanya Wu and Sherry Yang (Year 10)
  • Scarlett Fok and Mani Yung (Year 12)

Our boarders celebrated the State of Origin series decider last night.  Although the result was not what most boarders wished for, they all had a great night and enjoyed the celebration with a decorated dining room and Krispy Kreme doughnuts.

 

This Saturday, I will depart with the Year 10 students who are participating in the Cambridge Scholars’ Programme in the UK. We will return on Tuesday 6 August. I am fully contactable while away, although your Boarding Head of Year is always available to discuss anything boarding with you.

 

I have pleasure in welcoming back Di Kerr, our previous Head of Boarding, who will be Acting Assistant Head of Boarding for this term and will also look after Year 9 and 10 boarders. Ms Kerr can be contacted on the main boarding mobile 0409 582 480 or by email: dkerr@clayfield.qld.edu.au. Ms M will return next Wednesday 24 July. Thank you to Ms Holman who has taken care of the Year 5 to 8 boarders this term in Ms M’s absence.

 

As advised last term, we have extended orders for the 2024 Boarders’ Work Shirt.  These are available for family members as well.  If you wish to place an order, please go to Clayfield College Pay Online via the link below and select College Tours, Excursion & Activities as the event then the 2024 Boarder Day 28th March option. 

 

 

Please note, there are still some boarders who have not paid for their shirts.  We will be chasing this up this week.
