Well, hockey could be the sport for you!
We are holding a 'Come And Try' Session for any girls who are willing to try hockey out one afternoon here at the school.
You won't need any equipment, just a positive attitude and a willingness to give it a go...

When: 3:30pm - 4:45pm NEXT Wednesday 23 February 2022

Flashing School Zone Safety Signs Coming Soon
Flashing School Zone Safety Signs Coming To Old Logan Village Road
In the coming weeks, flashing school zone safety signs will be installed on Old Logan Village Road.
Canterbury College was nominated to receive these new signs as part of a Queensland Government commitment to improve road safety around schools.
You will notice the new signs look similar to standard school zone safety signs, but with the addition of a red flashing ring around the speed limit, as well as two flashing yellow lights at the top of the sign.
The lights only flash during school zone times and only on school days.
The installation of flashing light school zone signs is proven to improve visibility of school zones, serving as an active reminder for motorists to slow down.
So next time you’re dropping off or picking up your child, keep an eye out for the new signs and make sure you stick to the signed speed limit.
Thank you!
TAS Sport - Trimester 1, Round 3: Canterbury vs West MAC 🏀🎾🏐⚽️🏏
TAS Sport - Trimester 1, Round 3: Canterbury vs West MAC 🏀🎾🏐⚽️🏏
Here is your TAS Sport Trimester 1, Round 3 Results Wrap.
Congratulations to all our sports players who competed on Saturday in our 'first' round of actual TAS fixtures - officially Round 3 due to the delayed return to school.
As a College, we were represented by athletes with pure energy, high class and respect against the West Moreton Anglican College.
This was shown on and off the field by their sportsmanship, integrity and genuine support - of not only their team, but other Canterbury teams as well.
It was a really mixed bag of results on the weekend, with our Girls Basketball 🏀, Girls Tennis 🎾 and Boys Volleyball 🏐 teams winning all or nearly all of their matches, and our Girls Football ⚽️ and Boys Cricket teams 🏏 giving their best efforts against more experienced and cohesive outfits.
Your coaches look forward to full attendance at training this week!
Next Saturday we will be competing Away against traditional rivals JPC: John Paul College - our big local derby - so please get ready, train hard and let's keep the momentum going.
Our Senior Girls Tennis and Senior Boys Cricket teams still need more players urgently!
To sign up and join the fun with your school mates, please visit our MyCC Secondary Sport Page or contact Mrs Catherine Krzensk – 😁
Good luck to our swimmers and netball players attending composite districts this week as well.
Let's go Taipans! 🐍

Taipan Roboneers: Week One High Tech Happiness
Taipan Roboneers: Week One High Tech Happiness
Our newly formed Taipan Roboneers for Years 5-9 have rolled straight into an exciting Term One.
Students examined the LEGO Education EV3 Hub and how it functions to create a robot.
They investigated the software used to code this robot and were challenged to make their robot move precisely 50cm.
This involved students measuring distance against rotations and understanding how to instruct the robot to complete this operation.
Next week, the students will study up and down movements as their robot waves its leaver to collect and deliver cargo.
High Tech Happiness all round...
