100th day of big school for OLA Kinders.
There were hundred of reasons for Kindergarten students at Our Lady of the Angels, Rouse Hill, to be happy last Friday.
They celebrated '100 days of school' by engaging in many different '100' based activities. Some of these were making necklaces from 100 Fruit-loops, painting 'what I will look like when I am 100', skipping, hopping and jumping to 100, making trains of 100 cubes and funky 100 glasses. The grand finale was lining up to make a 100 numeral on the playground.
"The students had lots of fun while learning about '100'. The other teachers and I would especially like to thank the parents who came in to help. It wouldn't have been possible without them," said Kindergarten teacher, Andrew Baker.
School Principal, Mrs La Rocca, added that OLA has professional and dedicated teachers and working in partnership with parents is a highly valued part of the learning culture at our school.

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.

This morning, we welcomed our grandparents and special visitors for a wonderful Grandparents’ Day celebration at OLA. Thank you to Year 2 for leading us in a beautiful liturgy, and to our students who shone throughout the assembly, sharing their talents through singing, dancing, music, and presentations. We also loved welcoming our guests into the classrooms after enjoying a lovely morning tea. A huge thank you to our staff, students, P&F, and parent volunteers for making the morning so special. We were delighted to hear the many kind words from our visitors about the warm community spirit and quality Catholic education that make OLA such a special place!

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!
