Dear Parents and Guardians,

I trust that all families have had an enjoyable vacation and I am looking forward to welcoming the boys back next Wednesday. I would like to thank our Maintenance and Grounds Staff who have been very busy preparing the buildings and grounds for the commencement of term. The ovals at the moment look magnificent and have been freshly cut like the boys’ hair will need to be for their return!

As always there have been many activities during the holidays and I would like to thank Mr Brian McCarthy, Mr Graham Potter, Mr Justin Verco, Mr Ed Summers and Mr Neil Jablonski for the European Football Tour, Mr Ben Manion for the Senior Rugby Camp, Mr Rob Tredinnick for the Rifle Shooting Camp, Mr Mark Dickens and the many staff who organised and ran various holiday activities. Many of our teaching staff have been meeting with senior students, as they complete practical activities and holiday work and so I also thank those staff and boys for their diligence.

Now is a good time to start adjusting your son’s body clocks closer towards school times to assist with a smoother return to School.
