John McGlashan College
As we count down the last few days of the school year, it is time to reflect on what has been a very busy term. Highlights in this issue include Year 10 Arts Week, Year 9 Outdoor Activity week, Year 10 camps and work experience, Librarians' Christmas Party, and junior sports tournaments.
This is the final e-Newsletter for 2016, so we wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Have a lovely summer break, and we will see you back here in 2017.
Joyeux Noël!
