Feast of the Assumption

Our school hosted the parish mass on Monday for the Feast of the Assumption. This significant feast day celebrates the extraordinary person of Mary - the pure love she brings to the world through being the mother of our Lord Jesus. Father Richard reminded the children, that we do not pray to Mary, rather we ask Mary to pray for us, to take our prayers to God. History has proven the power of invoking Mary’s intercession through prayer.

After the mass, a number of parishioners approached staff to praise our students for how wonderfully and reverently they participated. Thanks to Mrs Imbriano and our senior students for preparing the mass. We are so proud of our school. We nurtured hearts on Monday!

Tournament of the Minds

With one week to go, our TOMs team is working very hard to prepare their ten-minute performance to solve the challenge. 

They are using their research, creativity, collaboration and time-management skills to solve the following ARTS challenge:

Who Are You? A mystery person has elaborately painted arms, they are wearing an interesting piece of jewellery and are dressed in a fabric that appears to be representative of a culture. Your team will use the clues to identify who this person is, where they have come from and the secret message that is hidden within their adornments.

If your child is interested in taking part, you can email for a copy of the enrolment form and details of cost. For all enquiries, please contact Sydney Academy of Chess on (02) 9745 1170.
