Annual G Day Celebrations

On Friday 26 August, Year 7 were joined by many guests for our annual G Day celebrations. We were so happy to see the many Grandmothers and Grandfathers, Aunties, Uncles, Mums and Dads, and even big brothers and sisters who had come to join us for the day.

 

 

We began our celebrations with a lovely liturgy organised by Mr Gattone, which was a special ceremony highlighting the importance of grandparents and other special people in our lives. After this we were entertained by many Year 7 students who displayed their talents in an array of ways. Thank you to all the girls who spoke or performed at the Assembly on G Day, it was just wonderful and I know all of our guests thoroughly enjoyed it. A special mention must go to Mr Combes and the Year 7 Drama group who put together a performance from a scene from Roahl Dahl’s “The Witches”, which had us all watching with anticipation. It is safe to say that we have lots of talent in Year 7!

Our guests then enjoyed a tour of the College and our exhibition, which was a small display of some of the work Year 7 have been putting together this year so far. Then to conclude the day, the girls enjoyed a lovely lunch organised by Ms Renshaw, with our guests before we said farewell for the day. 

It was a wonderful day and we all enjoyed the company of our guests immensely. The girls loved showing off their school to their special guests and we look forward to other opportunities to have you back again. 

"Young people need something stable to hang on to — a culture connection, a sense of their own past, a hope for their own future. Most of all, they need what grandparents can give them." – Jay Kesler
