Shanae, Holly, Natasha and Charlotte prior to their event.
Over forty eager students represented Our Lady of Angels at the Diocesan Cross Country.
What started as a chilly morning turned into a glorious and warm day at the Sydney Motorsport Park at Eastern Creek.
Every student represented the school with great pride. Every student on the day showed tremendous determination and perseverance and set personal best records. Most of our students who have represented OLA in previous years at the Diocesan Cross Country improved their ranking, beating their previous years’ achievements.
The top 8 students in each level move onto the next stage. We would like to acknowledge four of our students who will represent OLA/Parramatta Diocese at the NSW Catholic Schools Cross Country in June. Congratulations to the following students who will be going through to the next stage:-
Sebastian M and Thomas D in Year 5 and Seronique T and Ella S in Year 6. Jessie E and Jade R in Year 5 are reserves.
The OLA cheer squad needs to be commended, as after the students finished their race, they commented on how this helped with their determination to push themselves to complete the race and strive to go to the next stage.
A BIG thank you to all the parents for their support during training and on the day. A special thank you to Mrs Eldred, Mrs Burt, Mrs Cutuk and Mr Sievwright.

Today and on Wednesday, our students took part in a special ‘Share a Story’ activity. Classes moved around the school to visit different teachers, who shared some of this year’s Children’s Book Council shortlisted books. It was a wonderful way for students to enjoy new stories, hear different reading voices, and celebrate the joy of books together. What a fantastic way to connect through storytelling and inspire a love of reading!20 Aug 2025

Our library is looking amazing! To celebrate Book Week, each grade created a beautiful display inspired by the shortlisted CBCA books. The creativity, colour, and love of reading truly shines through every display. Congratulations to our students and teachers for putting together each display to celebrate these special stories!
