Walking in the Light

On Friday we saw the culmination of many weeks of effort and planning come together as we celebrated the changing seasons with our ‘Walking in the Light’ festival.

Thank you to all who attended and helped out at our Walking in the Light celebration last week.

It was a very special event with the amazing window decorations, lights and art created by our students accompanied by music, food cooked by some of our Year 9 students and of course, the hot spiced apple juice and fireworks from our Community Engagement Committee.

What a special was to celebrate Jesus, the light of the World!

Parent Prayer Groups

There are 2 Parent Prayer Groups, both meet on Fridays. They meet at:

  • 8.30am in the Principal’s Office (Senior Campus)

  • 2.30pm in the Primary Campus Meeting Room (in the School Office)

We look forward to welcoming you to one of these meetings if you are available and appreciate your prayers for our School and School community.

Last week, we said farewell to our much-loved and long-serving School Counsellor, Julia Willoughby.

Julia began working at Calvin Christian School in 2008 and has been a constant and steady presence for students and staff for over 17 years.

As a School we want to thank Mrs Willoughby for her many years of dedicated service.
