Some of the mums selling green jelly cups at lunchtime.
The children celebrated St. Patrick’s Day by dressing up in green. The day started off with a liturgy run by Year 4, to celebrate St. Patrick and remember all the work that he did for the development of Catholic Schools.
At lunchtime the SRC and Captains put on lots of fun and games for the whole school to enjoy. They did a great job with everyone having a fantastic time. Children competed against each other in basketball shootouts, soccer games and mini golf. We had some up coming models participate in the green themed fashion parade as well as many great artists compete in the drawing competition. It was a great afternoon with music, prizes and even a green themed photo booth.
A big thank you to all of the parents who prepared the special treats. Everyone enjoyed getting into the spirit and eating their green jelly cups. A special mention goes to Isabella in Stage 3 who guessed exactly the right amount in the lolly guessing competition, with the correct answer of 284. The children showed great sportsmanship, cheering each other on in all activities, which was great to see. It was great to see all the children wearing green to celebrate, thank you parents.
We hope everyone had a great and happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Last week our Year 6 FIAT team had a wonderful day at Nagle College for LIFTED Jnr, a diocesan faith‑formation experience run by Catholic Youth Parramatta. With the theme “Finding Purpose with Pentecost”, guest speaker Lou Daniels invited students to reflect on two big questions: What is our purpose? and How does the Holy Spirit help us live it out? Through singing, dancing, prayer, and rich discussion, our students showed maturity, enthusiasm, and a genuine openness to faith and leadership. They represented our school with pride and kindness. A warm thank you to our parents for supporting transport and making this valuable experience possible. Thank you also to Mrs Hodgess and Mrs Aspinal for accompanying our students.

On Friday, we gathered as a community to honour and celebrate our OLA mums. Year 1 led a beautiful liturgy and prayer, reminding us of the gift of motherhood. Our assembly that followed was filled with heartfelt performances- joyful songs, our Senior Dance Group, a moving Year 3 item inspired by Billy Joel, an Irish blessing for our mums, the choir, and the students performing the Nutbush! Thank you, Mr Lee, for coordinating this celebration for us. Thank you to our wonderful teachers for preparing students and welcoming families into classrooms, to our P&F for the lovely morning tea, and to all who joined us. May God bless all our OLA mums for the love they give so generously.
