REMINDER: Secondary School Lost Property Room Items Awaiting Collection @ P Block (P3) | From Week 1, Term 4
Dear Parents, Carers & Students,
There are plenty of lost uniforms and other items still awaiting collection in our Secondary School Lost Property Room in P Block – Room P3.
So here is your reminder to please check and collect any missing items at the start of Term 4 from Tuesday 3 October onwards.
Secondary’s Lost Property Room is always open Tuesday and Thursday mornings in-term from 8:00am – 8:20am, OR students can visit Secondary Admin during break times, OR see their Head Of House for room access.
Students can only access the room with staff supervision.
Canterbury remains acutely aware that parents and carers spend hard-earned money on school uniforms each year, and hopes this dedicated room will help reunite all lost items with their rightful owners, especially during these tougher economic times…
Kind regards
Ms Rina Leapai
Student Welfare Officer

This Morning's End Of Term 3 Chapel Service | Event Wrap & Photos
This morning's End Of Term 3 Chapel Service was a great way to reflect as we finish off a very busy 10 weeks.
College Chaplain Father Dan Talbot delivered his homily that focused on understanding ourselves and the people around us.
He also shared with our students and staff how easy it can be to stop being judgemental, and become the best version of ourselves.
College Principal Mr Dan Walker then shared the exciting news about the commencement of the construction of our new Bareibunn Precinct in the Junior School campus.
The announcement was met with cheers from our current Prep and Year 1 students, who will move into these fully modern classrooms in about 10 months' time.
Have a great break and see you all back here for Term 4, starting Tuesday 3 October after Monday's King's Birthday Queensland Public Holiday.
More photos from our End Of Term 3 Chapel Service can be found shortly on our Facebook Page HERE.

2023 Canterbury Dance Spectacular + Father's Day FREE Family BBQ | Event Wrap & Photo Gallery
Last Friday evening, we held our annual (and very popular with 841 RSVPs!) Father's Day FREE Family BBQ and Canterbury Dance Spectacular at the Canterbury Events Centre.
Our Canterbury Families celebrated an early Father's Day with cheese kransky hot dogs, bratwurst sausage hot dogs, American-style hot dogs, beef burgers, veggie burgers and soft drinks, plus lolly bags for the kids.
The first 100 Dads also claimed their free Canterbury umbrellas or fancy toiletry bags as gifts, before heading inside the CEC for our Dance Spectacular.
It was 'glitz and glamour' as our 12 student dance groups performed, filling the stage with movement, colour and undeniable talent, across a wide variety of jazz and contemporary styles.
Well done to everyone who made this large family event such a happy success!
