These school holidays, CGS Care has been full of fun, creativity, and unforgettable experiences!
CGS Care provides a vibrant and engaging holiday care programme at our Campbell and Red Hill campuses. Catering to children from Pre-School to Year 6, our programme is open to both CGS students and the wider community.
Each day, our educators design a mix of indoor and outdoor activities that ensure children of all ages and learning styles are catered for. These holidays, the programme’s adventures took participants to Inflatable World, TimeZone, an engaging workshop with Aaron Chatfield on damper-making and boomerang decorations, Bounce Belconnen, and an exciting live performance of The Cat in the Hat. There was also a wide variety of on-campus activities designed to encourage exploration, fun, and plenty of opportunities to make new friends.

Primary School Rugby at CGS was full of activity throughout Term 2. One of the major events worth highlighting is the experience of our U/11 team, with 14 brave players travelling to the annual U/12s Armidale Rugby Tournament, making the journey via two flights and a bus. The tournament has been running for over 20 years, and CGS has proudly been part of it for more than a decade.
Our U/10s also took part in the annual Matt Giteau Cup at Viking Park this past term, another long-standing fixture for 10 years in the CGS Primary School Rugby Programme. The team performed well, recording a mix of wins and losses while gaining valuable experience.
Overall, it has been a fantastic term for Primary School Rugby. A huge thank you to the CGS Rugby Association for providing the TAS tour jerseys, as well as to the parents, coaches, and volunteers for their ongoing support. ... See MoreSee Less
