Hello parents, carers and friends
Our heartiest congratulations go to our wonderful Principal Steve Collins for his appointment as Director School Improvement for the Tuggeranong Network. The Calwell High School Community was advised of this yesterday and we wish Steve well in his new role
We’ve seen amazing achievements by our school and its students under Steve’s exemplary leadership during the past two years. The P&C is extremely grateful for being able to work with such a talented and engaging Principal during this time.
We will miss Steve, but we can feel reassured in the knowledge that public education in our district will continue to benefit and grow from Steve’s involvement into the future. Go Steve!
Thank you to The Urban Treescapes Team from the Kambah depot for their delivery of garden mulch to the school this week. As part of the ACT Government Transport Canberra and City Services (TCCS) Directorate, the team has been extremely busy with the cleanup from the recent storm activity in our area and we're grateful that they've been able to fit us into their schedule.
The mulch comes from local trees that went down in that storm. This is a great initiative by TCCS that directly benefits the local community and gives a boost to our ongoing 'Greening Calwell High School' environmental project. We received 3 large loads of the mulch this week and we made a start with spreading it through the various garden beds yesterday.
We’re having a P&C working bee at the school next Monday 18 December, starting at 9.00am, to finish the job. Please drop us a line at calwellhighpandc@gmail.com if you can help out.
Also, please keep us in mind when you’re dining out during the upcoming holiday period and support our school through the Canberra Southern Cross Club Community Rewards Program and through Grill’d Woden Local Matters program. Now is also a good time to consider our excellent arrangement with The Athlete’s Foot School Rewards Program if you’re buying shoes for school.
These three programs help to spread the positive message about Calwell High to the broader community as well as assisting in the P&C’s fundraising initiatives that support our school.
It's been a great year for Calwell High and for the P&C, so thank you for your support and encouragement throughout the year. Very best wishes for Christmas and please stay safe and well in 2024 and onwards.
