A special evening to celebrate together as a community. We gathered for a Eucharistic Mass to give thanks for our teachers, families, and the gift of education. Fr Galbert reminded us that we cannot succeed alone, God places many wonderful people in our lives to support us, guide us, and be our champions. “Therefore encourage one another and build each other up.” 1 Thessalonians 5:11 A beautiful way to give thanks and look forward with gratitude and hope. ✨🙏

What a great morning participating in the Socktober Gala Day, hosted by the Western Sydney Wanderers, Catholic Mission and Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese. It was a warm day, but plenty of Zooper Doopers and water kept everyone cool and hydrated.⚽️🥅🥅 This was a wonderful opportunity for our students, who had the exciting experience of playing on the same synthetic training fields used by the Wanderers players themselves. A memorable day filled with fun, teamwork and energy!
