    IMG_8429.jpg
            
    This week our Staff Member of the Week was awarded to Mrs Cornel de Klerk for going above and beyond to do something sacrificial or generous
    (2 Corinthians 9:11-13)- Cornel works diligently in all areas of admin. Every request is met with a ‘can do’ attitude.

    Demonstrating Godly character (Philippians 5:22)- Cornel always has an upbeat and motivated outlook. She serves the students and staff in reception and the back window both pleasantly and joyfully.

    Faithfulness (Matthew 25:21) – Cornel shines for Jesus on a daily basis.

    Selflessness (Philippians 2:1-4) – Cornel completes any task required and even works back until she is finished.

    Seeking excellence (1 Corinthians 10:31) – Cornel is highly driven and seeks perfection in all she puts her hand to. She is an outstanding member of the admin team and always provides a marvellous first impression for guests to the school.                         

    The Fathering Project Father & Son Sports Evening

     This last week The Fathering Project were able to host this terms event on the newly completed Sports Courts.

    A big thank you to Mr Hedges, Mr McGillivray and Mr Partridge from our PDHPE Department who kindly gave up their time to come and run some games for us.

    Thanks also to Mr Nash, Mr Gibbons and Mr Ashley-Binge cooked up a great BBQ for the dads and students.

    Mr Nash welcomed everyone to our first official out of school hours event on the new courts, after which Mr McGillivray shared a short talk on ‘being good sports’.

    The Fathering Project has been adopted here at GPCC with the goal of improving student wellbeing by engaging fathers and father figures.

    This is achieved through termly events to support fathers in their role, and the hosting of a dedicated GPCC dads portal.

    Please see details below for our Term 2 event on Tuesday 30 May where Geoff Brailey from McCrindle Research will be presenting on The Impact and Importance of Fatherhood.

    Note this is a father and father-figures only event.

    This event is for fathers and father figures of Green Point Christian College and Yattalunga Valley Christian School students. However, our College/School fathers are welcome to invite a friend.
