⛪️ 🙏🏻 Celebrating the Sacrament of Reconciliation 🙏🏻 ⛪️ Last week some of our Year 3 and 4 students took an important step in their faith journey as they celebrated the Sacrament of Reconciliation. Through prayer, reflection, and God’s grace, the children experienced the beauty of forgiveness and renewal — learning that God’s love is always there to welcome us with open arms. We are so proud of each of them for their reverence, courage, and thoughtful preparation. Thank you to our families, teachers, and parish community for supporting the children as they continue to grow in faith and love.

🌸🍃 Year 1 at Mt Tomah Gardens 🍃🌸 Last week, Year 1 enjoyed a wonderful day exploring the Blue Mountains Botanic Garden at Mt Tomah! Students investigated the natural and human features of the gardens, discovered how the space is used by both people and animals, and reflected on the important role we all play in caring for Country. #Year1Adventures #LearningOutdoors #CaringForCountry #BlueMountainsBotanicGarden

🙏🏻 ⚽️ Mission Week ⚽️ 🙏🏻 What an incredible Mission Week! Together, our amazing school community raised over $1000 to support those in need. Students showed their creativity in the Design a Sock competition, lined up to score a goal against Mr Ticehurst and Miss Horley, and each class worked hard to create their very own Coin Snake — with Year 5 taking the win for the longest snake! We wrapped up the week with a friendly Year 6 vs Teachers soccer match, which ended in a nail-biting penalty shootout and an exciting draw! The energy was electric as students cheered and chanted from the sidelines! What a fantastic week of fun, teamwork, and giving back! #MissionWeek #CommunitySpirit #Teamwork #CatholicEducation #SchoolFun

📖 📚 Year 5 Preschool Visits 📚 📖 Some of our Year 5 students had a wonderful time visiting some of our local preschools over the past few weeks with Mr Ticehurst! They chatted with the children about what it’s like to start “big school” and shared some of their favourite picture books during storytime. It was so special to see our students being kind, confident role models — and to watch the preschoolers’ faces light up with excitement about beginning their own school journey! #StMatthews #BigSchool #FutureLearners #StudentLeaders #CommunityConnections

🕺💃🏼 190 Years Concert 💃🏼🕺 At the start of the term we celebrated our school’s incredible 190th anniversary with a spectacular concert! Students lit up the stage with amazing performances, dancing their way through the decades — from the 1950s to the 2000s — bringing history to life with music, colour, and joy. It was wonderful to see our school community come together to celebrate this historic milestone. Thank you to everyone who helped make the night so special! 💛💙 #StMatthews190Years #SchoolCommunity #CelebratingHistory #ThroughTheDecades
