OLA students gather to pray the Rosary.
On Monday, 13th October, the students of Our Lady of the Rosary celebrated Rosary Day.
All the school children, staff and some parents gathered in the shape of Rosary beads and prayed the Glorious Mysteries together. Each child received their own set of Rosary beads which were blessed by Fr Joby.
Our thanks go to Mr Baker for organising this day and to Fr Joby for leading us in prayer together. Remember to pray each day to God and Blessed Mary our Mother, in particular the Rosary, for your special intentions and God will provide.

We wrapped up a busy week with something truly special this afternoon- a live performance by Alyssa Delpopolo, current semi-finalist on The Voice! Alyssa wowed us with her beautiful vocals, answered thoughtful questions from our students, and shared powerful messages about chasing dreams and overcoming fear. Her words and music lit up the assembly- and the cheers, posters, and proud smiles said it all! Some of the most magical moments were when Alyssa joined our school choir for a beautiful song, and her cousin in Kindergarten proudly presented her with a special gift on behalf of our school. Thank you to Alyssa and her family for visiting us, and to Mr Cauchi for making it all happen. Thank you also to all of the family members who joined us for this special event. We’re cheering Alyssa on for her semi-final this weekend and beyond- our school community is behind you all the way! Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese![644505044136076_1426381972615042-1]()

From sprints and long jump to shot put, discus, and basketball skills, the day was packed with movement, laughter, and plenty of cheering. We were so proud to see wonderful sportsmanship, students supporting their peers, and big smiles and brave efforts in every event! A huge thank you to Mrs Batten for organising it, our dedicated teachers, and all the parents and families who came along to cheer and support!

On Wednesday, our Year 2 students were captivated by an exciting visit from Starr’s Planetarium. Inside the incredible inflatable dome, the children explored the wonders of the day and night skies, learning about the movement of the Earth, the changing positions of the Sun and Moon, and why we experience different seasons. The experience sparked their curiosity and deepened their understanding of the world beyond our atmosphere. It was a truly out-of-this-world learning adventure!
