The last few weeks have seen many great opportunities for our students to showcase and share their talents with the wider community.
Over 130 students took part in this year's Showcase with a great variety of acts including singing, jazz, tap and Irish dancing, hoola hoops, comedy, piano, guitar, violin and the Haka. A special mention must also go to our talented Staff members who bravely presented a 'surprise act" to the delight of the children.
We held our 7th annual Christmas Concert for the residents of our local nursing homes, grandparents and senior members of Parish. This event provides an opportunity for many of our students to create thoughtful gifts, Christmas cards and decorations which are then distributed to our special guests. It is also a chance for the three schools on our site to come together - OLQP pre-school, OLQP primary and St Pauls Catholic College. The students sang a varied collection of Carols which helped to spread some Christmas Cheer.
Our school choirs also presented a wonderful program at the Parish Festival of Carols on Sunday night.
We would like to thank all the children that took part in these events for their hard work and dedication and to thank you, their parents for your support.
Merry Christmas,
Mrs Grella & Mrs Mahony
Our Lady Queen of Peace Primary Greystanes

All Saints Day – Saturday, 1st November On Saturday, 1st November, we celebrate All Saints Day — a special feast that honours all the saints, known and unknown, who have lived lives of holiness and love. It reminds us that sainthood is not only for a few extraordinary people, but for all who strive to live faithfully in their everyday lives — the “saints next door” who bring God’s love to others through kindness, compassion, and service. As members of the Communion of Saints, we are united with all those who have gone before us in faith. We also look to Our Lady, the first and greatest of all saints, as our model of faith, peace, and discipleship. May her example inspire us to live with courage and grace as we continue to grow in holiness. “Let us remember: holiness is not a privilege for the few, but a call for everyone.” – Pope Francis

Our Lady Queen of Peace Primary Greystanes, recently welcomed a visit from Dr Hugh McDermott, State Member for Prospect. The school was awarded a $60,000 Community Building Partnerships grant, and Dr McDermott presented the school with a ceremonial cheque. During his visit, Dr McDermott spent time with some of our students and, alongside Fr. Paul Roberts, OLQP Parish Priest, delivered an engaging talk about the three levels of government and his own personal connection to the Greystanes community. The grant will make a significant contribution toward the construction of a large shade structure over the school playground. The school looks forward to seeing the new shade structure fully installed upon returning from the October school holidays.
