Year 1 students at Our Lady of the Angels, Rouse Hill, are learning about caring for the environment.
In response, they designed some promotional fliers to advertise 'Nude Food Day' across the school.
"Early in the term we gathered the Year 1 rubbish from a typical day and took a photo. On Nude Food Day, we were thrilled to see the impact it had on minimising waste,' said Mrs Macare, Year 1 teacher. "With the whole school behind the project, it has made a big difference to the number of rubbish bins needed".
OLA community hopes everyone will keep up the practice of bringing 'nude food' to school and caring for the environment.

Thank you to Mrs Vella, Mrs Hodgess, Ms Bombardiere, and our Year 6 students who led us in a beautiful prayer this morning, acknowledging the significance of ANZAC Day. Thank you to Mr Alex Mangion from the Rooty Hill RSL Sub-Branch, who also joined us (Freya's Grandfather). We remember the sacrifice that many soldiers have made for us, and we pray that the gift of peace, given to us by these brave people, will be treasured for generations to come.

Yesterday, our students gathered for our Alleluia Liturgy, reflecting on the joy of Jesus’ Resurrection in their classrooms. They spent time thinking about what the Resurrection means for us today- hope, new life, and God’s love for everyone. It was a moment of faith, reminding our school community that the risen Jesus walks with us each day.
