One of the Stage 2 girls soccer team.
On Thursday, thirty-eight Year 4 boys and girls represented OLA at the Stage 2 Soccer Gala Day held at Jamison Park, Penrith.
Grey clouds gathered as the day started with but, as it progressed, the sun shone on the soccer fields and a gorgeous, sunny day eventuated. All four teams worked well throughout the day as a team and communicated well to get the ball into their goal area.
For many girls, this was their first experience of playing soccer. The girls scored a lot of goals and defended well throughout each game. They experienced lots of wins; some loses and even drew a few games. Overall, the girls played well and even laughed at their own mistakes.
The two boys teams also had a wonderful day. Each team played well, showed lots of skill and great sportsmanship. Both teams came second in their draw and after eight matches they all went home a little muddy and exhausted.
Josh, Isaac, Malachi, Charlie, Anthony, Rory, Thomas and Jayden represented OLA at the Stage 2 Soccer Gala Day.

A huge congratulations to Aiyonce in Year 5, whose cricket journey continues to soar! Last year, she proudly represented the MacKillop cricket team for CSPD- and this year, she’s been selected for the NSW Girls U13s team! During the holidays, Aiyonce received her first-ever NSW Blues cap from none other than Sarah Coyte, and she’ll be heading to Ballarat at the end of the month to compete in the interstate championships. She’s also the youngest member of the team- and was even featured in The Daily Telegraph this week! We’re so proud of you, Aiyonce- your dedication, talent, and team spirit are truly inspiring!

What a brilliant way to kick off Term 4. Yesterday, our 9 teams of OLA students represented our school with pride at the Netball Gala Day in Penrith, showing outstanding sportsmanship, resilience, and true OLA team spirit, even while playing in the heat. A huge congratulations to all teams for their wonderful efforts throughout the day. A special mention goes to our U10 Girls and Junior Boys Teal teams, who went undefeated and were crowned Gala Day Winners! We sincerely thank our amazing parent helpers, as well as the Marian students and ex-OLA high school students, for giving up their time to assist, support, and umpire our teams. Your help made the day run so smoothly. Finally, a big thank you to our teachers Mes Batten, Miss Digwood, Mrs Hodgess and Miss Wahab for organising, assisting, and cheering on our students. What an incredible start to the term, we are so proud of you all!
