It was a lovely sunny day & everyone participated to the best of their ability. There was fantastic sportsmanship on display by all & everyone represented their school with pride.
All 4 of our relay teams finished in the top 4- our Junior boys, girls & senior girls coming first and our senior boys coming second.
We had the Junior Girls age champion in Niamh M. and the Runner Up was Angelique S.. Stephanie B. was named as the 11yr girls age champion and Trisha C. was named Senior Girls Age champion with Mary E. as runner up.
Overall we have 27 students who were successful in making it to the next level of competition on 26th August.
I would just like to congratulate all of our sport stars yesterday- it was a great day & both Mr Knight & I were very proud of everyone's behaviour throughout the day. A Big Thank you to Mr Castelino, our parent volunteer for the day. We really appreciated all your help.
A huge good luck to our future stars for a few weeks too!

Today we celebrate the feast of Saint Patrick. As a missionary and bishop, Saint Patrick dedicated his life to sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with the people of Ireland. His courage, faith, and trust in God remind us that even one person, guided by the Holy Spirit, can help bring light and hope to many. May we be inspired by Saint Patrick’s example to live our faith with joy, kindness, and courage in our own community. “Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me, Christ in me.” Happy Saint Patrick’s Day to all in our school community. ☘️

Just a quick reminder in case you haven’t had a chance to register your child yet.

Our program blends digital creativity with practical activities, ensuring a balanced mix of screen-based and non-screen learning. Children are encouraged to bring their own device (laptop/chromebooks or iPad) if available; however, shared devices will be provided during screen-based sessions. ✨ Special Early Bird Offer ✨ As a thank-you to our past participants, we’re offering 20% off (almost $40 off) the full price for early registration Discount Code: EBAP Offer expires: 20 March 📍 Locations and Dates (9:00 AM – 3:00 PM) OLQP Greystanes Ages 8+: 9 April Ages 5–7: 10 April The Ponds Ages 8+: 13 April Ages 5–7: 14 April

We would like to sincerely thank our wonderful FIAT team for their generosity in creating and donating the beautiful Easter baskets that will be raffled off next week. During Lent, we are reminded to reflect on the needs of others, especially those who are less fortunate. Easter is a time of hope, renewal, and generosity, and these baskets are a lovely reminder of the spirit of giving that this season calls us to embrace. Your kindness and willingness to contribute reflect the true meaning of Lent—thinking of others, sharing what we have, and spreading joy within our community. #faithinactioncspd
