Well done to our Senior School students who played in the Southside Football Gala Day recently. The girls finished second, and as a result will be invited to play in the ACT Football Competition.
Year 1 students recently hosted their parents, friends and teachers for the Animal Expo. Students showcased animal habitat dioramas that they had created, which focused on the theme 'Sharing the Planet'.
Annie (Y8) and Sophie (Y11) represented the U16 ACT Hockey team at the U16 Australian Schoolgirls National Hockey Championships recently. Sophie was the captain of the team, while Annie was the youngest member of the squad.
Recently our Year 11 IBDP students volunteered at the Food Pantry in Narrabundah, establishing gardens, building compost units, planting, sorting donations and working in the public shop front. The staff at the Food Pantry spoke highly of our student's involvement, and the CEO, Simon Bennett, reiterated his thanks to CGGS, noting his staff have 'never worked with such engaged and capable students'.
