Footy throwing was a hit with the boys and some girls.
The feast day of our patron, Our Lady of the Angels, is a special day in our school calendar.
The day before, the school captains, sports captains and SRC representatives organised, set up and ran a variety of activities for the OLA students. Mrs Byrne would like to congratulate them on their effort and organisation.
The students had a great time participating in the activities and there were lots of excited and happy children. We were blessed with great weather and a fun atmosphere.
On the 2nd of August, the actual feast date, the community gathered to begin the celebrations with . Mass followed by a procession of Our Lady and the Blessed Sacrament and concluded with a Benediction. With the liturgical events over, Fr Warren declared the Fiesta open. The day, which was well attended by parishioners and families and school staff, concluded with spectacular fireworks. We are already looking forward to next year!
Here are some girls dancing using with a hola hoop.

Today, Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi settled their fun Wacky Wager, much to the delight of our students! Buckets of bright pink slime sealed the deal for 2026, creating a moment of pure joy for the students and teachers! It was definitely a day filled with faith, FUN, and learning at OLA. A huge thank you to Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi for making our school not only an outstanding place to learn, but a place where memories are made- memories our students will carry with them forever!

The first Sunday of the school holidays called for a little friendly OLA footy rivalry! Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi headed along to the Parramatta Eels vs Manly Sea Eagles clash to cheer on their teams. Let's just say... Mr Cauchi walked away the happier of the two! Now all eyes are on tomorrow, when our wacky wager will be settled!

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.

Holiday time means extra reading time- the school holidays are the perfect chance for our OLA readers to make progress on the Premier’s Reading Challenge! There's not long to go until it closes. With a little extra time to unwind and get lost in a book, it’s a great opportunity to tick off a few more titles from your list. We love seeing these familiar faces soaking up quiet reading moments these holidays- proof that reading can happen anywhere, anytime. We hope these photos make you smile! At OLA, we 'READ TO SUCCEED'!

Year 2 finished the term with a fantastic HSIE excursion to Longneck Lagoon EEC. They learnt about the ways people connect to and care for places, water environments, and each other, using geographical information. It was so much fun!! Thank you to our Year 2 teachers for organising this, and our wonderful parent helpers who joined us and helped on the day!
