TLG Meeting | 24 April 2017

On Monday this week we had the TLG meeting in the GT125 Auditorium. Mrs Louise Underwood, Head of Faculty (Library) continued sharing the valuable information she provided on research resources and assignment preparations. We are very grateful to have Louise explain the digital platform our boys use for research and resources. One significant aspect worth mentioning is the extent of material available on the College’s online library through Libguides, accessed through the boys’ Moodle login – or you can access it here. It is definitely worth investigating yourself to see that there is really no need for the boys to blindly ask Google what they need to find out.

Mothers’ High Tea | Years 5 – 9, The Marquee, Victoria Park

This Friday 28 April is the Mothers’ High Tea for Years 5-9. There will be bubbles on arrival, a Traditional High Tea plus free entry into the Lucky Prize Draw.

We are honoured to have Sallyanne Atkinson, former Brisbane City Council Lord Mayor (amongst many other accomplishments) as our guest speaker.

Terrace Cookbook Special

The TLG are pleased to offer to the whole school community a “High Tea Cookbook Special” for only $50 you will receive The Terrace Cookbook ($5 saving), a free GT Tea Towel and the Red and Black canvas carry bag. This is a total saving of $25. We have had some great sales with this special so we have decided to extend it until Mothers’ Day. You can purchase these at the Morning Tea, the Uniform Shop or via this link on the school’s website.

Tennyson Canteen

Last Saturday was our first home game for the Football season against Nudgee. Thank you very much to all the mothers that helped in the canteen on such a busy day. It was greatly needed with the canteen being busy throughout the whole day. Supplies were very thin at the end of the day which reflected the good takings overall in the canteen and barbecue. The next home game is 6 May, which is the same day as the Season Launch. We are expecting another busy day, so please volunteer to help if you can. Of course home bake is always welcome too.
