The Nepean Zone Athletics Carnival was held at Blacktown International Sportspark last Friday, 10th August.
A round of applause for our wonderful team of athletes, who wore our school colours with pride! A big thank you to Mrs Paine, who spent the day with the 40 students representing our school. The team performed exceptionally well and we are thrilled to share the following results:
Congratulations Jarred H, who broke the Nepean Zone Record in the 200m 11 Years Boys event! An amazing effort!
St Mary MacKillop had THREE Age Champions on the day! Congratulations:
Amber S - Junior Girls Champion
Jarred H - 11 Years Boys Champion
Judith G - Senior Girls Champion
What superstars! This was a massive achievement for each of them!
Congratulations to the 17 students who have qualified for the Diocesan Athletics Carnival which will be held next Thursday. We are so proud of you all for having the opportunity to represent your school and your Zone at such at a high level! We wish you the very best of luck!

Today, our Year 3 students shared a beautiful Liturgy of the Word with their family and friends. Their liturgy centred around mercy and coincides perfectly with Reconciliation, with many of our students having made their First Reconciliation, on Tuesday night. The students were very reverent and reflective throughout the liturgy and were inspired to continue to show mercy every day by: being kind, forgiving others, helping those in need and treating everyone with love and respect, just as Jesus taught us.

๐โญ Today was R U Ok? Day โญ๐ Sometimes all it takes is to ask someone 'R U Ok?' During lunch time today, our school hall was transformed to a quiet and calming space where friends could connect, take a moment to themselves, and remind each other asking R U Ok? is kind way to connect and support one another. With relaxing music playing, a meditative under ocean video on the big screen, mandalas to colour, affirmation cards to fill in, chatterboxes to help pose questions, puzzles to work on together and some comfy cushions all around - our beautiful students were reminded of how important it is to look out for each other. We also asked our students a range of questions where they could add to the graffiti walls and remind each other of who we can turn to if we ever need some help. What a beautiful community to be a part of โจ

Our schools are cracking the reading code
Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, itโs surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.
