We are very much looking forward to the Year 10 Camp from Monday 31 October to 3 November 2022 to Sydney. Please ensure you read the below Covid requirements for camp.
- All attending students should be RAT tested the night before camp
- If your child displays cold and flu like symptoms while on camp they will be asked to self-test using provided RAT tests.
- If your child tests positive to Covid while on camp parents will be required to make arrangements for them to be transported home. Supervision will be provided and your child will be isolated from the rest of the group while transportation is arranged.
- Under no circumstances will a staff member be allowed to travel with a covid positive student.
If you would like to discuss these conditions of camp further please contact Emma Hibbert on 64958888 or emma.hibbert@cg.catholic.edu.au

Help us become a Sustainable School!
As part of our Season of Creation celebrations we have teamed up with Zero Co to promote the elimination of single use plastics in everyday beauty and cleaning products. The Season of Creation goes from 1 September to 4 October to encourage us to think how we can better care for our common home by responding to the cry of the earth and the cry of the poor.
For every product sold via our Sustainable Schools page, the school can earn up to $40, AND, Zero Co pulls 1kg of plastic out of the ocean for every $10 raised. The campaign goes until 4 October, so please jump on it today and help raise much needed funds for the school, as well as cleaning up our oceans in the process. Money raised will go towards improving our College waste management processes.

The Regional Youth Taskforce is an advisory group that provides the Minister for Regional Youth and the Office for Regional Youth advice on issues affecting young people living in regional NSW. It provides young people from rural and regional areas with a unique opportunity to meet with government and inform decision making that will have flow-on benefits for schools, peers and communities.
The Taskforce is comprised of 18 members aged 12-24, each with diverse backgrounds and experiences, and with two people representing each of state’s nine regions. The group meets four times throughout the year either online or in person. Travel costs, meals and accommodation are covered when travel for meetings is required.
If you want to make a difference to your community, and the lives of your friends and peers, we encourage you to apply. Being part of the 2023 Regional Youth Taskforce connects like-minded and driven young people and will engage you on issues such as entering the workforce, mental health, connectivity, and public transport in the regions. The Taskforce will provide you with the ability to influence important decisions the Government makes on these topics and many more.
Applications open 12 September and close 23 October 2022 and young people aged 12-24 living in regional areas are eligible to apply. The fourth Taskforce will be appointed from January 2023 until 31 December 2023.
