Parent & Community Engagement
A strong commitment to our boarding families and communities has underpinned the TGS Boarding Program for more than 135 years.
Parent and community engagement is vital in ensuring our Boarding experience is effective, supportive and relevant to the needs of our boarding families. The following outlines how we communicate with our families and the opportunities for involvement in the Boarding and School community.
Parent Communication
- Weekly email from Head of Boarding (This Week in Boarding "TWIB")
- Communication with Heads of House and/or Head of Boarding as needed
- REACH Boarding Management System (for boarder leave)
- Principal's Newsletters
- Social media - TGS Facebook, TGS Instagram
- Parent Lounge and the School App
Parent Engagement Opportunities
Boarding parents are encouraged to join in the Boarder Parent Support Group meetings that take place at the beginning of each term, on the Boarder Travel Day. Other opportunities for parent engagement are outlined in the Boarding Handbook each year.
See our School Communication brochure and Boarding Handbook for more information.
