Raising Awareness for Movember!
This November, nine eager Clayfield staff members are joining the Movember movement by growing moustaches and moving to raise awareness for men’s health!
We lose 60 men to suicide globally, every hour and since 2003 Movember has supported over 1,250 men’s health initiatives worldwide, challenging the status quo, revolutionising research, and transforming how health services engage with and support men.
We took the very first mo progress shot of Mr Woods, Mr Keith, Mr Reedy, Mr O'Rourke, Mr Richardson and Mr Opstelten today! Stayed tuned for the second progress shot next week! Mrs Bryan, Mrs Wake and Mrs Beauchamp are doing the Movement Challenge where they are moving 60kms for the month. We are so proud of them for 'Growing a Mo' and doing the Movement Challenge to raise money for such an important cause.

Uniform Shop Update
Secondary School Formal Uniform
As communicated within the Principal's Message in the Term 4 | Week 4 edition, there will be a new Summer Dress (Secondary) available for purchase from 2025. This is a new style which will complement our existing Summer uniform offerings for girls, which now includes the blouse, peplum blouse, skirt, shorts, and pants.
The Uniform Company have advised that the new dress will be available for purchase from mid-March 2025.
A friendly reminder that former uniform items (that is, those not part of the current uniform range), are no longer available for purchase from the Uniform Shop. However, they are permitted to be worn by students as part of the transition period, which concludes at the end of the 2025 school year.
HPE Uniform
We look forward to officially unveiling the new HPE uniform range to our community in the coming weeks. These new uniform items will be available for purchase in the Uniform Shop starting in 2025, with a twelve-month transition period for our families.

Clayfield Swimming - Learn to Swim Program
Reminder from the College IT team
As part of the ongoing security enhancements at the College, student use of VPNs from the College Wi-Fi and onsite network will be restricted from Term 4. We previously advised that students should discontinue the use of VPN’s while on campus throughout Term 3 ready for this change. To clarify, VPNs are usually used to access overseas streaming services and to bypass local streaming limitations. Continued use of a VPN from Term 4 onwards will stop access to College systems whilst at the school, including access to Internet resources and the Microsoft 365 suite (Office applications, OneDrive, OneNote and Teams).
We will also be updating the Microsoft 365 cloud solution with enhanced security settings to restrict access from overseas locations. If families are intending to travel overseas at any point and the student requires access to the College Microsoft 365 solution whilst away, parents should contact theIT team ahead of any planned travel to ensure we set access for the travel period.
Message from the Enrolments Team
Enrolment Procedures & Business Regulations Friendly Reminder
Parents/caregivers are reminded to review our Enrolment Procedures & Business Regulations on a regular basis.
We would like to provide families with a friendly reminder that a full term’s written notice, addressed to the Principal, is required when withdrawing a student from the College to avoid fees being charged in lieu of notice.
Where a student is leaving at the end of the school year, notice must be received by the first day of Term 4.
Notice is to be provided via email to principal@clayfield.qld.edu.au and enrol@clayfield.qld.edu.au.
