OLA held its Primary Cross Country at Russell Reserve. It was great to see all the children dressed to support their house colour and the captains ready to lead their house in the cheering.
There was evidence of good sportsmanship on the day, especially encouragement for the runners on the track. We were very lucky with the weather, as the rain held off until all the children were back at school.
I would like to thank all the teachers for their support and assistance on the day to help the Cross Country run smoothly. Once again thank you to all the parents willing to assist on these days. Without volunteers, it is really hard to organize sporting events so I appreciate all the parents who helped on the track and came to cheer on the children. The first 6 runners in each age group in boys and girls are eligible to attend the Diocesan Cross Country held at Eastern Creek next term.
I would like to congratulate the following children, who will represent Our Lady of Angels at the Diocesan Cross Country.
Sebastian M, Zane B, Isaac S, Marc S, Cody T, Thomas L, Natasha E, Ailbhe G, Olivia H, Jasmyn R, Shanae M, Alana L, Jesse E, Rory M, Marc Z, Lucas L, Anthony C, Cooper B, Seronique T, Jade R, Claudia C, Montana B, Daniella L, Amelia D, Ashton S, William A, Javier S, Jai T, Blake T, Nicholas S, Ella S, Emily O, Isabelle D, Elise E, Kalani N, Nicholas C, Domenico L, Jordan V, Sebastian C, Alex B, Michael B, Patricia C, Jordyn E, Angelina C, Ana B and Ivana K.
10 year old girls at the finish line. Well done girls!

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.
