Upcoming Year 8 Camp
A reminder that the Year 8 Camp is happening next week, from Thursday, 12th December to Friday, 13th December at AGH Camp. Students are asked to arrive at school by 7:30 am on Thursday morning.
Camps are a fantastic opportunity for students to bond with their peers, build resilience, and create lifelong memories. We encourage all students to participate and bring their best selves to this experience.
As always, please feel free to contact me directly at samiri1@parra.catholic.edu.au or call the College office if you have any questions or concerns.
Kind regards,
Ms Susan Amiri
