📚✨ A Symphony of Stories! ✨📚

What a magical Book Week at Calen! From Prep to Year 12, our students and staff embraced their creativity and brought their favourite books and characters to life. 🎭📖

It was wonderful to see our Kindy friends join in the celebration too! 💚

A day filled with imagination, creativity and, most importantly, a love of books and the stories they inspire. 📚✨

Our Year 11–12 Hospitality students put their skills to the test during a practical demonstration, creating delicious Japanese-inspired dishes while developing their culinary techniques and presentation skills. 🇯🇵✨

Learning, creating and cooking up a storm! 👏

💚 A Farewell Full of Heart 💚

Today our secondary students said a very special farewell to Mrs Moffett, sharing just how much she has meant to them over the past 7 years at Calen. 🥹

From helping, supporting and encouraging them through the ups and downs, to becoming like a second mum to so many, Mrs Moffett has made a lasting impact on our students and our school community.

We will miss you greatly, Mrs Moffett! 💚 Thank you for everything you have done for our students and for Calen.

Congratulations on your new role! 🎉 We are so lucky that you’ll still be part of our Calen family, visiting as a Youth Worker and continuing to support our First Nations secondary students.

Once a Calen family, always a Calen family! 💚
