Ms Pepin, Kaitlin, Claudia, Maneesha and Mrs Byrne at the Mission Mass
At the beginning of Term 4, we had the opportunity to attend the Diocesan Mission Mass that was held at the St. Patrick’s Cathedral in Parramatta.
This was a great experience for us because we are part of the Mini Vinnies group that meets every Monday. At Mini Vinnies, we learn all about Mission in our community and internationally. We discuss how we can support others in need and make a difference.
Before the Mass, we had the chance to walk around to different stalls set up by schools in the Parramatta Diocese. Then we had a lovely mass that was very eye opening. We were spoken to by a missionary that helps to educate those less fortunate than us in Cambodia.
This was an incredible event that we were extremely privileged to participate in. It made us think about how we can help others that are less fortunate than ourselves.

The school holidays are the perfect chance for our OLA students to make progress on the Premier’s Reading Challenge! With extra time to unwind and get lost in a good book, it's the ideal moment to tick off a few more titles from your list. We are loving seeing these familiar OLA faces enjoying a quiet reading moment during the break- what a great reminder that reading can happen anywhere, anytime! We hope these photos bring a smile to your face! At OLA, we 'READ TO SUCCEED'!
