On Saturday morning, the 8th of March, Year 10 students from both Caroline Chisholm College and St Dominic's were joined by their art teachers and other staff members to display their amazing contemporary art installation.
Inspired by the Nepean River, Year 10 students created lino prints from images sketched after a visit to the river.
The beauty of the river was encapsulated in the resulting flags, postcards and hanging bottles displayed on a wonderful sunny morning at Tench Reserve.
Students Tori Campbell and Tara Dangerfield kept a blog updated on the morning of the installation, reflecting on the project based learning experience that had culminated in this final product.
Members of the public enjoyed the glorious weather as they strolled by and were greeted by students who were enthusiastic and eager to share with them what inspired each individual artwork and the project they engaged in to complete them.

Taliesha is making a splash for Australians living with multiple sclerosis (MS) by taking on the MS Mega Challenge! This is a 24-hour team relay swim at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre starting at 12 noon on Saturday 30 August. MS strikes young people in the prime of their lives, the average age of diagnosis is only 30 years old and there is currently no known cure. Taliesha’s MS Mega Challenge is raising money for vital support and services, and fund the MS Go for Gold Scholarships to help people with MS realise a dream. We are very proud of Taliesha’s generous effort and concern for others. Please support Taliesha’s MS Mega Challenge. You can make a donation through her fundraising page: https://www.msmegachallenge.org.au/s/7048/10402/e

Year 9 Become Campus Detectives! Our team of intrepid Year 9 investigators took on Kingswood for the first exciting chapter of the WSU Fast Forward Program — and they absolutely rose to the challenge! In a fast-paced simulated investigation, our students put their transferable skills to the test — problem-solving, communicating, collaborating, showing initiative and resilience — all while working as a united team to crack the case. Along the way, they explored the vibrant WSU learning environment, built their confidence, expanded their awareness of post-school opportunities, and embraced the value of being lifelong learners. A big thank you to Ana and the WSU Future Student Engagement team for hosting this innovative and inspiring start to the program. We can’t wait for the next chapters of this journey, with more campus visits and student coaching consultations still to come!

Bullying No Way Week is this week! Bullying No Way Week is Australia's key bullying prevention initiative for schools. It provides an opportunity for schools to create a shared understanding about bullying behaviours and share their bullying prevention policies and strategies. The theme for 2025 is 'Be bold. Be kind. Speak up.' Bullying is everyone's responsibility. It takes a community to be brave and address bullying behaviours, within and beyond the school gate. Students can be bold, kind and take a stand to support others being bullied. While parents and teachers are there to support children and young people learn how to behave in a positive way. In our community and in our school, we want a place where everyone can belong, a place that celebrates everyone, and where bullying is never accepted. Tomorrow during our Wellbeing Lesson students will be engaging in a Wellio Lesson that focuses on practical strategies for handling bullying, whether as a victim or a bystander, and practise how to intervene in a positive manner. @Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese

Careers are more than just the jobs we do - they encompass our life journey: work, family, travel and opportunities along the way. Today's Lunch & Learn captured this concept like no other! Our guest speaker Jane Ewing has had an extensive career in a range of roles and industries, spanning meteorology, aviation, science, research and mathematics education. A true lifelong learner and innovator, Jane has broken barriers in male-dominated industries with perseverance, curiosity and grit. Her inspiring life story highlighted not only the power of resilience but also her passion for empowering others and looking at life and careers from a female perspective — something she continues in her current role advocating passionately for women to pursue apprenticeships with NECA NSW. Thank you, Jane, for sharing your journey, wisdom and encouragement with our students. Our audience left feeling motivated, energised and empowered to chase big dreams!
