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.

Last week, Year 3 had a fantastic time on their excursion at Penrith Lakes, exploring the natural environment and learning about the world around them. Students enjoyed hands-on experiences as they investigated plants, animals, and ecosystems, while discovering how scientists use information to help care for our environment and solve real-world problems. Thank you to our Year 3 teachers for organising this excursion, and to the parent helpers for joining us!12 Nov 2026

Yesterday, we paused to remember. As a school community, we honoured the brave men and women who served our country, taking time to reflect on their courage, sacrifice, and the lasting impact of their service. Through prayer, reflection, and a minute's silence, students were reminded of the importance of gratitude, peace, and remembrance. Lest we forget.

On Friday, our Kindergarten students proudly presented their very first Whole School Assembly, and what a wonderful showcase it was! Our students confidently shared their learning in Religion, Science, and Creative Arts, giving everyone a glimpse into the exciting learning taking place in Kindergarten. Their performance of The Cranky Bear was a highlight of the assembly, bringing plenty of smiles and laughter to the audience with their enthusiasm and expression. We are so proud of the confidence, creativity and teamwork our Kindergarten students demonstrated as they performed in front of the whole school community. For many of them, this was their first experience presenting at a whole school event, making it an extra special milestone. A huge thank you to our Kindergarten teachers for the time, dedication, and preparation that went into making the assembly such a success, and thank you to our families who joined us to celebrate and support our students. Well done, Kindergarten!

Last week, OLA students and staff took part in our vibrant sock mufti for Catholic Mission's Socktober. It was a delight to see the school get into the spirit throughout the week, with the activities led by our Faith in Action Team during lunchtime for each year group. It is always a pleasure to see our community work together to spread the love of Christ. Thank you to all of our families who donated. Thank you for your generosity. To date, we have raised over $1,000 that will provide better educational facilities for the people of Malawi. It is wonderful to see our community helping those less fortunate!
