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.

The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary - Mary is being taken body and soul into heaven. The Assumption reminds us that Mary’s life was a perfect “yes” to God, and because of that, she was drawn fully into His glory body and soul. It is a feast of hope. Her Assumption is not only a moment of triumph; it is a promise. A promise that holiness is not wasted, that love is not forgotten, and that every faithful “yes” is gathered into eternity.

Inspired by Mary MacKillop’s words, “Never see a need without doing something about it,” 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 Family’s 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. 💙🙏

🎶 2026 Arts Factor Band Day 🎶 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.

🪴 From garden to harvest! 🧑🌾👩🌾 We carrot believe how much our Garden Club harvested today! 🥕😄 Our little green thumbs have been hard at work, and the veggie patch certainly delivered. As we continue to reflect on the teachings of St Francis of Assisi, we’re reminded to care for God’s creation with gratitude and love. What a wonderful way for our students to put his message into action! 💚🌍 Well done to our budding gardeners, we can't wait to see what's ready to harvest next! 🌱💚
