Happy World Teachers' Day to our incredible teachers! Today, our staff were treated to a special morning tea and showered with appreciation from our wonderful school community. We are deeply grateful to our Parent Representatives for organising this thoughtful celebration, and to all our families for your kind messages, generous gifts and ongoing support. As a Catholic school, we recognise that teaching is more than a profession, it is a vocation. Through their patience, compassion, encouragement and care, our teachers strive to be the face of Jesus to our students each day, nurturing not only their learning, but also their faith, confidence and sense of belonging. Thank you to our amazing teachers for all that you do and for the positive difference you make in the lives of our students every day. We are truly blessed to have such dedicated staff and such a supportive community. 💙✨🙏🏻29 Oct 2026

A Transformative Day at Cana Farm 💚 🌿🐴 Today, our Year 6 MacKillop Award students had the wonderful opportunity to visit Cana Farm, a Cana Communities initiative, where they dedicated their time to serving others through caring for the animals and helping with various tasks around the farm. Beyond their hours of service, students were invited to reflect on the deeper meaning of their experience, making meaningful connections to the biblical story of The Wedding at Cana and the Catholic Social Teaching principle of Human Dignity. Through this experience, students discovered the importance of taking the time to truly listen, understand and connect with others, recognising that every human person deserves to feel seen, heard, valued and loved, regardless of their background or circumstances. It was a truly transformative day that reminded our students that service is not simply about what we do for others, but how we encounter others with compassion, respect and an open heart. A heartfelt thank you to Martin and David from Cana Farm for providing such an enriching and meaningful experience for our students. We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to put our faith into action and witness the power of human connection. 🙏

🧦⚽💛 SOCKTOBER: Walking in the Shoes of Others 💛⚽🧦 Our Socktober celebrations began with a meaningful liturgy led by our Year 6 MacKillop Awardees, who reflected on the Gospel of the Good Samaritan and its powerful message of compassion, kindness and care for others. Connecting Jesus’ call to love our neighbour with the mission of Catholic Mission, students engaged in prayer and dialogue, deepening their understanding of the challenges faced by children and communities in Malawi and the importance of standing in solidarity with those in need. Students put their creativity into action by making their own sockballs using odd socks and recycled materials! ⚽ Through this hands-on experience, they gained a greater appreciation of how children around the world find joy in playing with handmade soccer balls, while learning the importance of empathy, gratitude and global responsibility. Despite the rainy weather, we made it work and embraced the spirit of Socktober! 🌧️💛 We are reminded that even small actions can make a big difference when we put our faith into action. A heartfelt thank you to our staff and families for their wonderful support, and a special shout-out to our Faith in Action Coordinator, Miss McEntee, for organising this meaningful day! Together, we can kick goals for good! 🌍❤️

On Monday a selection of our Year 6 Mackillop Award students and Year 5 Mini Vinnies students had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Catholic Mission Socktober Launch at Wanderers Fives, where they participated in a day of reflection, learning and soccer! A highlight of the day was the soccer matches, while also learning about the importance and significance of Socktober and how it supports communities in need around the world. Our students returned inspired and excited to share their learning with the rest of our school as we prepare to launch Socktober at St Angela’s in Term 4. We look forward to seeing how, together as a St Angela’s community, we can put our faith into action and make a difference! 🧦⚽💙
