Miss Pepin handing out a special Walk to School sticker.
Walk Safely to School Day (WSTSD) is an annual, national event when all Primary School children are encouraged to walk and commute safely to school.
This community event aims to promote Road Safety, Health, Public Transport and the Environment.
Some of our participants crossing the road for Walk to School Day.
The support shown by the parents was amazing. They parked 5-10minutes away from the school and walked the rest of the way to the school gates. We even had families walk to school. Greeting the students and parents at the gates were some Year Six students, Miss Pepin and Miss D’Mello who handed out a special sticker for participating.
Some parents downloaded the 'Walk Safely App'. Those parents registered and had their child's participation recorded on the national database.

A huge congratulations to our amazing Year 4 students on a beautiful Whole School assembly on Friday! Their exploration of Jackie French’s Fire and Drought this term truly came to life through thoughtful reflections, an amazing poem, expressive artworks, and original rhyming stanzas. The creativity on display was inspiring, and we couldn’t be prouder of the way they shared their learning with our school community! Thank you to everyone who attended!

Our Year 5 Faith in Action Team attended the Vinnies Encounter Day at St John Paul II College. Students learned about keeping the “fire of Christ” alive by serving others with a listening heart. They explored the challenges faced by people experiencing hardship and how Vinnies offers a hand‑up to help restore dignity and stability. Our students represented OLA proudly- speaking confidently, sharing our Winter Appeal efforts, and even taking on the Patrician Brothers in a game of handball. Thank you to Mrs Petrocco and Mr Lee for accompanying the group.
