On Thursday 10 October, to acknowledge and celebrate 100 years of the Churchie Army Cadet Unit, members of the ACGS Army Cadet Unit formed up to conduct a Heritage March down Oaklands Parade with the rest of the Senior School forming a Guard of Honour. The Churchie Army Cadet Unit has its basis in the 15th Battalion Australian Military Forces. In 1919 students from the School, as Senior Cadets, formed 16 Platoon, D Company of the Battalion. The date coincided with the 102nd anniversary of the laying of the Foundation Stone of School House.

Congratulations to First XI 2019 premiership players Jackson Simpkin (New Zealand) and Jordan Courtney-Perkins (Australia) who are taking part in the FIFA Under-17 World Cup in Brazil from 26 October 26 to 17 November. We wish them well as they represent us on the world stage. We also take this opportunity to wish the Churchie Track & Field team every success at the 2019 GPS Championships to be held on Saturday 2 November at QSAC Main Stadium.
