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.

๐ Celebrating Cultural Connections at Holy Family! We were delighted to host a group of visiting students from China, who joined us to explore Catholic education in Australia. Their visit gave them a glimpse into how faith, learning, and community shape life at Holy Family. Our students also embraced the opportunity to connect with peers from another culture, sharing stories, traditions, and new perspectives. These meaningful exchanges highlight the value of both our Catholic identity and the global relationships we nurture. Weโre proud to share what makes Holy Family unique and thankful for the chance to grow and learn together!![thumbnail-facebook]()

Last week, Year 2 went on an excursion to the City as part of our Integrated unit for this term ๐. We explored a range of important places in Sydney, following in the footsteps of the book โAlexanderโs Outingโ by Pamela Allen. We started our trip at Customs House, exploring the model of Sydney. We then enjoyed Crunch and Sip in front of the steps of the Museum of Contemporary Art. After this we walked around Circular Quay โด๏ธ, heading towards the Sydney Opera House to have recess on the steps, looking out at the Sydney Harbour Bridge. We then took off on our walk ๐ถ๐ผโโ๏ธ, through the Botanic Gardens ๐ณ, past the Art Gallery before having lunch in the Domain. We then walked to Hyde Park โฒ๏ธ, finishing by visiting St Maryโs Cathedral. Year 2 had a wonderful time and we were very lucky with beautiful weather. We all slept very well that night! ๐ด
