Top Twelve Hockey teams thrilled us with their successes, while musicians performed beautifully.  As the winter season came to end, we celebrated friendships and lessons learnt.

It would be hard to believe that CGHS had a holiday of three weeks given how much activity there was on campus and how many of our learners were touring.  We are proud of our sport and cultural involvement of July.  

What a joy is was to chat to Millicent about her memories of Collegiate in the war years of 1939 - 1944.

April featured travels for our sporting and cultural groups, while at school there was travels too as Literary Week encouraged reading as a means to travel the world through the pages of a book: "Books are the plane, and the train, and the road. They are the destination, and the journey. They are home." - Anna Quindlen

There is something magical about March when the transition occurs from Summer Sport to Winter Sport. As the summer sports wind down, there is great excitement as the first games and festivals take place for the winter sports.

It is with nostalgia and gratitude that we share this new addition to our Resource Centre. The beautiful new bookshelf is a tribute to Old Girl Nina Hampton (née Bok) from her parents in her memory. Her legacy lives on.

“All the world is a laboratory to the inquiring mind.” - Martin Henry Fischer, Physician & Author: This week was a celebration of sport, culture, drama, teaching and learning, and Steam Week ran full speed ahead!
