Mr Dino Arraiol - Head of School Community and Wellbeing Middle and Senior School

Dear Parents and Guardians,

 

As we begin Term 3, students are encouraged to reflect on the progress highlighted in their Semester 1 reports and identify meaningful goals for the months ahead. These goals can help shape new habits, strengthen areas for growth and support students in reaching new levels of success. The term will also include several significant events, including National Science Week, Good News Week, National Book Week and the Year 9 Service Trip to Tara and Chinchilla. We look forward to working in partnership with families as students engage in the academic, pastoral and co-curricular opportunities available to them.

 

Our pastoral focus for Term 3 is empathy. Throughout the term, students will explore what it means to understand how others may be feeling, listen with care and consider different points of view. Developing empathy helps students communicate respectfully, make thoughtful choices and build stronger relationships. These skills are an important part of maintaining a balanced and fulfilling life, both at school and beyond.

Parent Teacher Student Interviews - Wednesday 22 July 2026

Parents are invited to book a Parent Teacher Student Interview with their child's teachers which are scheduled to take place next Wednesday 22 July.  Please book through the Parent Lounge on the Calvary App.

 

Bookings will close on Sunday 19th of July. Parents are encouraged to book an interview if the teacher has specifically requested one or if you are concerned about your child’s progress in class. If there is a significant mismatch between how your child thinks they are progressing/behaving in class and what the report card indicates, it would also be worth booking an interview. If you go interviews, please take your child along.

Alpha Course - Carbrook Parents

Starting next week Real Life Christian Church, will be hosting a series of Alpha Courses for our Calvary Community. 

 

What is Alpha?

Alpha is a series of interactive sessions that explore life, faith and meaning. It is a chance to share thoughts and ideas on each session's topic and discuss them in a small group. There’s no obligation to say anything, and there’s nothing you can’t say (seriously). It’s an opportunity to hear from others and contribute your own perspective in an honest, friendly, and open environment.

 

Parents and the wider college community are warmly invited to participate.

 

Details of the Carbrook Alpha Sessions

When: Thursday mornings from 8:45-10am (Commencing Week 2)
Where: JS Staff Room, Calvary Christian College
