Grandparents head back to school for the day

More than 300 Grandparents will head back to school for the day when they attend the Grandparents’ Day celebrations held at The Cathedral School on Friday.

Every year the Cathedral’s Early Learning Centre and Junior School opens its classrooms to Grandparents in a celebration of family inclusion and involvement. It has become an annual event that the whole school community really looks forward to.

Head of Junior School, Mr Paul Taylor said “Grandparents’ Day is a very important event on our school calendar as it gives our grandparents an opportunity to feel special and welcomed into the school community. Things are so busy now days with children doing sport, music and dance, that at times, our grandparents can be forgotten.”

Marclene, 17, in the first year of a Bachelor of Nursing Science degree at James Cook University, is the first person in her family to attend university.
