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, our Year 6 and Kindergarten students enjoyed a final catch‑up with their buddies, sharing smiles, memories, and exchanging special gifts. Having buddies is such a special part of life at OLA, creating friendships, role models, and moments the children will treasure long after the year ends!

In Science this term, Kindergarten has been learning all about forces. Last week, the children used recycled materials to design and make a functioning ramp. The children then used round objects to test whether their ramp would successfully allow the item to roll down. They had so much fun creating their own little masterpieces!

This morning we celebrated a very special group of students at our traditional Student of the Term Assembly (Principal’s Award), followed by a lovely morning tea with Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi. Each student was chosen by their teachers for their consistent effort, kindness, and positive attitude throughout Term 4. As the final assembly for the year, it was a joy to acknowledge their dedication and achievements- what a wonderful way to finish 2025. We are so proud of them!
