We promised more photosโฆ and here they are! ๐ธโจ Yesterdayโs Harmony Day celebrations were too special not to share a little more of the story behind the smiles. Students were incredibly fortunate to learn from Lyndal and Ayoola from CSPDโs Jarara Cultural Centre, who brought culture, stories and deep knowledge to life in such an engaging way. Our school was bursting with colour as students created vibrant handprints, which is a powerful symbol of unity and belonging. Students also worked collaboratively in their classes to research different countries and continents, proudly showcasing their learning through beautifully decorated class maps. After reading Iโm Australian Too by Mem Fox, students thoughtfully reflected on what Harmony Day looks like in our community. Their responses spoke of inclusion, respect, kindness and celebrating the rich diversity that surrounds us each day. Swipe through to see more moments from a day filled with connection, learning and joy! ๐๐งก Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese

Tonight we celebrate a beautiful milestone in the vocation of teaching. Congratulations to Miss Yu on being commissioned, alongside fellow Early Career Teachers in the Parramatta Diocese. In the Catholic tradition, education is far more than the sharing of knowledge, it is a calling to nurture the whole person: mind, heart, and spirit. As educators, we are entrusted with the sacred task of forming young people in truth, compassion, and hope, reflecting Christ in all that we do. Miss Yu, may your journey in education be filled with purpose and joy as you inspire your students to grow, learn, and become the people God calls them to be ๐
