It has been an eventful start to Term 1, 2018 with our annual school Swimming Carnival being held on Wednesday the 7th of February at Granville Swimming Centre. We had fantastic weather and all staff and students who attended the event had fun and showed great sportsmanship.
All Students had the opportunity to gain house points by participating in both main pool events as well as novelty races.
The final House results for the 2018 swimming carnival were:
1st Kerrigan (160 points) 2nd MacKillop (147 points) 3rd Martin (142 points)
4th Stack (139 points)
Congratulations to the Kerrigan House on winning the overall point score for the day.

Finally, we would like to take this opportunity to thank and congratulate the staff on another successful event. Thank you for your enthusiasm, and dedication to ensuring our students have a safe and great day.

Inspired by Mary MacKillopโs words, โNever see a need without doing something about it,โ we are called to continue her mission by caring for one another, welcoming all, serving those in need and bringing the love of Christ to life through our words and actions. Today we celebrate Holy Familyโs Josephite heritage with gratitude and pray that, like Mary MacKillop, we may be people of faith, hope and generous service. Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, pray for us. ๐๐

๐ถ 2026 Arts Factor Band Day ๐ถ What an incredible day of music, learning and collaboration! Today, a group of our talented Year 6 students, along with Jiji from Year 5, proudly represented Holy Family at the 2026 Arts Factor Band Day. Joining students from primary schools across the Diocese, they took part in an inspiring workshop where they learned and performed a brand-new piece of music together as one combined band. The day also provided each school with the opportunity to showcase their talents by performing two prepared pieces, celebrating the dedication, teamwork and musical growth of every student involved. We are so proud of our musicians for stepping outside their comfort zones, embracing new challenges and representing our school with confidence, enthusiasm and pride. A huge thank you to the Captivate Team Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese for providing such a memorable experience.

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.
