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.

Our students have been busy over the past few weeks preparing and practising their speeches for our 'Voices of OLA' Public Speaking Competition. Public speaking is such a powerful skill for young learners- it builds confidence, clarity, and the ability to communicate ideas with purpose. Well done to all students who participated in their class competitions, and congratulations to the two finalists from each class who were selected to represent their grade. These finalists presented in a grand final this week in front of their whole grade, teachers, parents, and Mr Calabria and Mr Cauchi. Thank you to Mrs Kennedy for organising this wonderful event, Mrs McBrien, who judged the grand final with Mrs Kennedy, and to everyone who supported and participated. What an inspiring celebration of student voice!24 Sep 2026

Thank you to our wonderful Year 3 students and teachers for leading us in assembly last Friday. We loved hearing their poem about Australia, watching them demonstrate their sentence work on whiteboards using Rowan of Rin, admiring their artwork, and joining in their thoughtful prayer about Mercy. Thank you to all the families who joined us- your presence always makes these moments even more special.

Last Monday, eight of our Year 5 Faith in Action students travelled to Wanderers Fives to represent our school at Catholic Mission’s official 2026 Socktober launch. Today ‘kicked off’ with prayer before transitioning into an energetic day where we created traditional sockballs and played a challenging round-robin of soccer. They learnt about how Catholic Mission aims to build a school for children in Malawi. They shared Zooper Doopers and even enjoyed volleyball alongside friendly high schoolers from St Agnes. While the games brought plenty of big hits, terrific goals, and friendly competition, the real highlight was the team spirit, social connections, and encouraging atmosphere that taught us to go with the flow and have fun. A special thank you goes to Mr Lee, our FIAT coordinator, and Mrs Laborte and Miss Scopizzi for driving them and making this memorable experience possible!
