ROYAL BATHURST SHOW A reminder that the Royal Bathurst Show will be held at the showground this coming weekend. The members of our leadership team will participate in the Grand Parade on Saturday afternoon at 3.45pm so if you’re attending the show, make sure to go and watch the parade and give our students a cheer as they parade by.

YEAR 6 JERSEYS Year 6 Jersey’s arrived in the holidays & will be distributed to the students. If any parent of a Year 6 2020 student would like to take on the task of sorting the jerseys for next year, please contact Fiona Taylor. Good to get onto this now as Canterbury often take a while to get organised!

NOTE FROM THE CANTEEN

Please note one menu change to the café canteen; lasagne instead of frittata. Also, if the call for volunteers works and we fill up the term by Week 3, we will make whole term online ordering available.
