World Environment Day, celebrated each year on June 5, is the most renowned day for environmental action.
This year the theme is biodiversity – a concern that is both urgent and existential. Recent events, from the bushfires in Australia, the US and Brazil, to locust infestations across East Africa – and now, a global disease pandemic – demonstrate the interdependence of humans and the webs of life, in which we all exist.
As we enter into a week celebrating the World Environment, we want to highlight how some of our schools are caring for our earth, like Holy Family Primary School East Granville.


Bede Polding College Agriculture students have been busy replanting their gardens in the lead up to Environment Week.



How lucky are the students St Columba's Catholic College Celebrates as they have their very own farm onsite.
Check out the chickens, roosters, llamas and cows. They look so well cared for.

Kindergarten 2026 – Our First Transition Morning 💛 Today our newest Holy Family members took their first big step on their learning journey! It was a joy to see our future Kindergarten students meet one another, explore their new surroundings, and begin to build the beautiful friendships that will grow over the years 🖍️📚 As they played, shared, and learned together, we were reminded of Pope Leo’s recent words: “Even when we are little, we can all learn to build peace and friendship. Jesus calls us to learn to be friends with everyone, all brothers and sisters. We are all sons and daughters of God.” 💫 This message truly came to life in every smile, every shared block tower, and every moment of wonder among our newest learners. While the children were busy creating and connecting, Mrs Clogher led a special Religious Education session for parents and carers. Families engaged in hands-on activities that reflected how their children will continue to come to know Jesus’ love for us and for others when they begin at Holy Family ❤️ Parents also had the opportunity to write a Prayer of Hope ✨heartfelt messages for the children beginning Kindergarten in 2026. These prayers will be held close to our hearts as we prepare to welcome our newest little members of the Holy Family community. We can’t wait to see their learning and friendships continue to blossom! 🌟👧🧒 Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese29 Oct 2025
