On Thursday, the 10th of September, the Year Five Debating team had the opportunity to compete in the Delany Cup Debating Grand Final.
Julia Kable, Sophia Santos, Victoria Carr and I were lucky enough to come back to school victorious, knowing that we had worked hard to win the Delany Cup.
It was a friendly debate between our school and St Margaret Mary’s; we have became close friends from the previous debates. We were pleased with the great sportsmanship shown by the girls from St Margaret Mary’s and liked the way they politely congratulated us
We would especially like to thank Mrs Dwyer, Mr Hopley and Mrs Garzaniti for supporting us during our debates. We would also like to thank the Delany Staff and students for welcoming us and holding the debate in their school. Another warm thanks to Mrs Carr and Mrs Barker for giving up their time to take some students to and from Delany College.
So now we are Delany Colleges 2015 Debating champions!! We are so proud of this achievement.

❄️ Winter Sleepout 2025 ❄️ Last Friday, our Year 6 Faith in Action Team and staff participated in the Winter Sleepout, a powerful evening dedicated to building empathy and understanding of the challenges faced by those experiencing homelessness. The night was filled with hope and compassion as students gathered in the hall for prayer and reflection. We are incredibly grateful to Fr. Paul for his presence and heartfelt leadership throughout the night. Putting their faith into action, our students made sandwiches that were delivered to the St Vincent de Paul Society to be distributed by the Vinnies Van, supporting those doing it tough in our community. This was a truly moving experience and a beautiful reminder of the strength of our Greystanes Catholic Community when we come together for a meaningful cause. 💙

Music Around the World This term in Music, all students from Kindergarten to Year 6 have participated in learning about music from around the world. Early in the term we enjoyed a very lively performance by Musica Viva which introduced the students to cultural music and helped to develop an enjoyment of music from various countries. Throughout the term I have shared my personal travel experiences to Vietnam, as well as teaching all students about my own cultural heritage- Lithuania. I have been so privileged to have had the opportunity to teach the dance "Sejau Ruta" which translates to "Planting Rue". The students have learnt to dance to a steady beat, perform various movements and work well in whole and small groups to perform the dance. I hope you enjoy watching the short movie displaying various classes performing the dances throughout the term. Jenny Kuchta Music Teacher
