It is an expectation that ALL ELC - Year 2 students attend this special celebration.

Class teachers will send home further information regarding props and costumes for this event, so please keep a close eye on your class' MyCC page in Newsletter/Updates, OR for ELC students through Xplor for further information.

Staff will be outside to collect students and take them into the CEC to prepare for their performances.

Please Note: Staff will be unable to collect students from the ELC or OSHC, to bring them to the CEC, as they must be signed out by a parent/guardian.

We recommend that you give your child a snack or early dinner, and have them use the toilet before they arrive at 5:10pm, as there will be no food permitted in the CEC during the event itself.

Students will remain with their class teachers until the conclusion of the evening.

There will be no option to collect students early, as this will interrupt the proceedings, and we need to ensure that all students are properly supervised for the entirety of the event.

Parents and carers will need to wait to collect their children from their class teacher, ensuring their name has been marked off the roll at the conclusion of the ceremony.

We look forward to seeing all our ELC- Year 2 families join us in celebrating this very special event!

Yours faithfully,

Mrs Michelle Leftwich
Head of Junior School

REMINDER: 2023 Canterbury Blazer Pockets | FREE Update Changeover Available NOW @ Campus Uniform Shop

2023 Canterbury Blazer Pockets: FREE Update Changeover

Dear Parents, Carers & Students,

Canterbury College is updating its blazer pocket, so is offering ALL 2023 students in Years 7-12, FREE replacement of their existing blazer pockets.

There are currently three different types of blazer pocket designs in circulation, and we are hoping to standardise them down to just one, in time for Term 2, 2023.

To start this changeover process, we ask current students in Years 7, 8 and 9, to bring their blazer into the campus Uniform Shop NOW, to take advantage of this FREE offer.

This will also include any blazers that are brought in for secondhand sales, or blazer pockets with line awards.

However, if you are attending the Secondary School Speech Night on Tuesday 29 November, and are expecting to receive an award on stage, OR if you are on-stage for the End-Of-Year Chapel Service (College Captains and Spirituality Captain etc) on Wednesday morning 30 November, please wait until AFTER these important official events are completed.

Canterbury’s list of Speech Night award winners was made available this week already.

Our campus Uniform Shop will be open on Thursday 1 December and Friday 2 December for these later blazer drop-offs.

Remaining students are asked to bring their blazer in for the new pockets during February 2023.

Naturally, please ensure ALL blazers are clearly named for easy return to their rightful owners.

For any enquiries, please contact Ms Sandra Allen in our campus Uniform Shop – T: 07 3299 0925 | E:
