October Meeting : Wednesday 24 October 2018 – Community Update
At the October Board of Trustees meeting, we received a presentation from Buzz Channel, the company that runs our community consultation process, giving us a summary of the consultation results. Overall the findings were positive, the board will go through the full report and use the information to help develop Glendowie College's Strategic Plan 2019 – 2022.
The ongoing development of the College Campus is gathering momentum. On the back of the completion of the Quad, planning for the relocation of the weights room is underway and at the Sports Awards evening, Mr Dykes confirmed the installation of a new multi- purpose sports turf.
