Year 5 has learnt that they will be learning about 'entertainment' this term with the driving question 'How has science influenced entertainment?'
To begin our inquiry Year 5 experienced different ways people are entertained. Students rotated through activities focused on video games, board games, cards, lego, podcasts, music, videos, reading and art.

✨ Merry Christmas from the staff of Holy Family East Granville! ✨ As we gathered to create this little snapshot of Christmas joy, our hearts were drawn back to the true meaning of this season, Christ coming to us in love, humility and hope. Just as the Holy Family welcomed Jesus into the world, we too are called to make room in our own hearts for His peace and light. This year, we have laughed, learned, prayed, grown and journeyed together as a community. And in every moment, the big, the small, the messy and the magical, God has been with us. 💛✨ Christmas reminds us that love became present in the simplest of ways: a child, a manger, a promise. May that same love be born again in each of our families this season. From our Holy Family to yours, 🎄❤️ May the joy of Christ fill your homes, may His peace rest in your hearts, and may His hope guide you into the new year. Merry Christmas & God bless! — The Staff of Holy Family East Granville 🙏✨🎁

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!
