This week, Reverend Creed shares an Easter reflection as we head into the Term 1 school holidays.
The School celebrates its 105th Anniversary this year. To mark this special occasion, we unveiled a commemorative plaque at the base of the Moreton Bay Fig Tree, located at the top of the driveway of our Secondary Campus. This tree has watched over CGGS since we moved to this site in 1927. Its deep roots and expansive canopy symbolise the School’s strong foundation in tradition and our vision for the future. The plaque was unveiled by Junior School Captain Audrey C, representing the future, and Old Grammarian Val Dyke (1962), who represents the generations of individuals who have contributed to our proud history.
We were honoured to have former Principal Dr Barbara Fary OAM, along with life governors, past and present council members and friends of the School, in attendance.
Here’s to 105 more years of learning, growth and innovation.
The Parents & Friends Association (PFA) was delighted with the turnout at the Welcome Evening, with over 400 parents joining us for a fantastic night. Despite a brief downpour, the weather was otherwise perfect. Guests enjoyed delicious Vietnamese-style cuisine provided by Cooinda the new Fig Tree Café caterers, beverages and music.
The evening offered parents a wonderful opportunity to reconnect with old friends, forge new connections within the parent community, and meet staff. We extend our heartfelt thanks to the PFA and our amazing parent volunteers who helped set up, decorate, serve food and beverages, and clean up. Your efforts were greatly appreciated, and it was a lovely evening for everyone who attended.
