10 year old boys prior to their race.
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!

This week, we acknowledged some of our amazing Mathematicians at OLA. This year, we have had students from Years 2 to 6 participating in Maths Games, Maths Explorers, and Maths Olympiad. Each week, they have had to challenge themselves to solve maths problems, and they also participated in a number of contests throughout the year. Well done to all of these students who were all presented with a certificate, and to those students who also received patches and badges for finishing in the top 25%, top 10%, or for being especially chosen by their teachers for their persistence throughout the year. An extra special congratulations to Adrian in Year 5 and Carlos in Year 4, who finished as equal 'Highest Achievers' at OLA for 2025! A big thank you to Mrs McBrien, Mrs Cordukes, and Ms Swain who helped facilitate these groups this year, to allow our students to have these wonderful opportunities!

On Wednesday, our Faith In Action Team took part in a special day of faith formation and learning about social justice, hosted by CSPD and Jesuit Social Services (JSS). They visited Holy Family Primary School, Emerton, where they heard more about the incredible work JSS does to support the Mount Druitt community. The highlight of the day was touring the Ignite Food Store, where they saw firsthand how the donations from our Parish during Term 1 are making a real difference. A big thank you to Mrs Nicholls for providing transport and supporting our students on this meaningful experience.

Year 2 enjoyed a fun coding incursion this week. They discovered how to give instructions to a computer, fix little mistakes, and create their own simple programs. It was great to see their creativity and teamwork as they solved problems and shared ideas. Coding helps students learn to think step‑by‑step, be resilient, and use their imagination in new ways. Thank you to our Year 2 teachers for organising this! We’re so proud of how confidently they took on the challenge!

We have had so many fantastic events and celebrations again this week- and it's only going to continue for the rest of the term. On Tuesday, we very excitedly welcomed our Kindergarten 2026 students for their second orientation session. It gave the students another chance to explore, connect, and feel at home here at OLA. We can't wait to welcome them all for their final session on Thursday!
