Alpha Course - Calvary Parents

Commencing: Wednesday 22 July 

Next term RLCC, will be hosting a series of Alpha Courses for our Calvary Community. 

 

What is Alpha?

Alpha is a series of interactive sessions that explore life, faith and meaning. It is a chance to share thoughts and ideas on each session's topic and discuss them in a small group. There’s no obligation to say anything, and there’s nothing you can’t say (seriously). It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly, and open environment.

 

Parents and the wider college community are warmly invited to participate.

 

Details of the Springwood Alpha Sessions

When:  Wednesdays, 8:45-10:00am (Commencing Week 2)

Where:  Springwood Staff Room

Deputy Principal of Junior School - Kim Winton

Dear Parents/Guardians,

 

As we wrap up Term 2, thank you for your investment and support. Every stage has experienced a camp, carnival or excursion this term; all opportunities for our children to grow in independence and resilience.  

 

Tomorrow, to celebrate the final day of term, the free dress theme is Pyjamas; however, please remember that it is still a full day of learning and play, so clothing should be comfortable, practical and suitable for all school activities. Hot chocolates are also on offer to warm up for the winter holidays. 

 

Junior School reports will be available via the Parent Lounge (website or Calvary app) from Friday 19 June, and Parent-Teacher Interviews are scheduled for Week 2 of Term 3 (21 and 23 July) to discuss your child’s progress. You can book your interview time via Parent Lounge.  

 

On behalf of Mr Marshall, the Junior School Team, and myself, thank you for a fantastic Term 2. We pray that all our families enjoy some rest and relaxation over the holidays. 

Free Dress Day

Our last day of Term is traditionally a Free Dress Day fundraiser, Friday 19 June.

 

This term the theme will be PJ's, Hot Choc and Happiness. We invite all students to join in the cosy fun and support the College Compassion Kids program, by bringing along a gold coin donation.

 

Please see here a link to the College's Free Dress Guidelines.

Academic Reports / Parent Teacher Interviews
