Chinchilla Donations:
The Year 9 students are travelling to Chinchilla during the last week of school in Term 3 to serve the Chinchilla community and present our Hygiene Product collections to Drought Angels. Drought Angels will use these donations to create care packages for farmers who are hard at work producing food for us and may not have the time or resources to care for themselves. Year 9 students will visit Form classes regularly to collect the donations that will "Help us Help the Farmers that Feed Us". We ask that all Hygiene products (as listed below) be sent to school and High School students will collect these each morning starting from Monday 20 May 2024:

Middle and Senior School Athletics Carnival
Dear Parents and Carers,
On Thursday 6 June (Week 8), the Middle and Senior School Athletics Carnival will be held at Calvary Christian College. This day will involve all students from the Middle and Senior Schools. The program of events is on a separate attachment, and more information will be emailed to all students in the school.
Students are expected to wear their House-Based Sports uniform to and from school on this day. Upon arrival at school, students may further accessorise their uniform to support their House. House colours may be displayed or worn as ribbons, hair ties, face paint and coloured zinc cream.
Parents and friends are most welcome to attend the carnival – please sign in at the Main Reception upon arrival.
The College tuckshop will NOT be accessible to students during the day. However, student pre-orders will still be accepted and delivered to the oval twice across the day at similar times to the 1st and 2nd Breaks. Student orders will need to be submitted before 9 a.m. on the day of the carnival.
In the event of wet weather, the carnival will be postponed and students will attend normal lessons for the day. If rain is forecast, families should regularly check the College MSS Facebook page for confirmation of postponement and be prepared to attend normal classes.
For any further queries, please contact me on 3287 6222 or at sport@calvarycc.qld.edu.au.
