Carols

Thank you to our Calrossy community for joining us at our Annual Carols Service. It was wonderful to see so many families join us for this annual Calrossy Tradition. A huge thank you also must go to Naomi Turner, Director of Music at Calrossy for coordinating this event and ensuring everyone was pitch perfect, plus the talented music staff members for accompanying our students. 

Tamworthian & Calendars

The 2019 Centenary Year Souvenir edition of the Tamworthian and 2020 Calrossy Calendar arrived this week. These publications were distributed to the youngest student  in each family from Preschool to Year 12, with one copy of each to go to every Calrossy family. Many Kindergarten parents missed out, in what has been an extremely busy few days, please go to the Brisbane Street Reception where limited spares are available for anyone who missed out.

Centenary Magazine - A Walk Through Time

One of the highlights of the Calrossy Centenary year has been the production of the Centenary Magazine – "A Walk Through Time". This 165 page booklet is full of wonderful pictures of current and past students, is great reading and a wonderful memento of our 100 years of schooling.

The booklet contains a fabulous account of our history and the many personalities who have shaped Calrossy over time (including the William Cowper Schools up to their amalgamation) and should not be missed. 

"A Walk Through Time" is $25 plus postage.  To purchase your copy, please phone reception on 5776 5100.
