From the Head of Junior <strong>School</strong>’s Desk<br />
Dear Parents,<br />
Throughout this semester, our students have worked<br />
particularly hard and I have been very pleased with progress which is outlined in the<br />
reports which will be distributed in the first week of the student vacation. Should you<br />
have any queries or require extra clarification of any element of your son's report, please<br />
email the class teacher or arrange a meeting at which work samples and rubrics can<br />
be examined. Additionally, further formal Parent-Student-Teacher interviews will be held<br />
next semester.<br />

During the busy semester, I have been privy<br />
to many great performances by individuals<br />
and groups. Even this week, our students<br />
have been busy in extra-curricular pursuits.<br />
On Wednesday, three of our six Junior <strong>School</strong><br />
debating teams competed in their first debates.<br />
For the majority of these students, this was their<br />
first exposure to the competitive side of debating<br />
and has helped to form their understanding of<br />
how to be successful in this field of speaking.<br />
The boys worked exceptionally hard in their<br />
preparation over recent weeks and performed<br />
credibly. Special congratulations to the Year 5<br />
teams (which both incorporate Year 4 students)<br />
for their work over this time with Dr Fanshawe<br />
and for competing so admirably in their first<br />
competition.<br />
Additionally, on Thursday evening, both<br />
the Junior White and Senior White Football<br />
(soccer) teams played in their respective grand<br />
finals, both against Mt Crosby State <strong>School</strong>,<br />
our traditional, annual rivals. The Junior White<br />
team played brilliantly and, if not for the heroics<br />
of the Mt Crosby goalkeeper in the second half,<br />
the score would have been significantly greater<br />
than the eventual 5-0 win to IGS. Following<br />
this, the Senior White team won 2-0 in a vastly<br />
different encounter, tussling in a tight battle.<br />
Congratulations to our victorious teams. Well<br />
done. We are all very proud of not only your<br />
results but the manner in which you have<br />
fought throughout the season.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
David Macknish<br />

Junior <strong>School</strong> Parent Support Group Raffle<br />
The Junior <strong>School</strong> Parent Support Group raffle was drawn Friday 21 June. Congratulations to the following prize winners:<br />
1st Prize - Dean Beckett<br />
2nd Prize - Raleigh family<br />
Readers' Cup<br />
On Thursday 13 June, a team of five boys represented <strong>Ipswich</strong> <strong>Grammar</strong> <strong>School</strong> in the Reader’s Cup which is an annual<br />
event held in select schools across Australia. It is a competition supported by the Children’s Book Council of Australia which<br />
requires students to read five nominated books. They are then required to remember specific facts from these novels and answer<br />
questions in a two hour competition. Year Six students, Dominic Stevenson, Kyle Palmer, Thomas Wigg, Daniel Raleigh and<br />
Mitchell Wood represented the school and spent several weeks reading and taking notes on the books. In a highly contested<br />
competition, the team came sixth overall and should be highly proud of their efforts! It was a pleasure to witness the commitment<br />
of these boys over several weeks and they did an excellent job against many Year Seven teams. We would like to congratulate<br />
the following schools who placed on the day.<br />
