Paralympian Visit

What a privilege is was to have Colin Sieders and AJ Reynolds visit St Finbar's today.

Their messages of resilience and developing a growth mindset was inspiring for our Stage 3 and 2 students to hear.

Having role models like Colin and AJ helps inspire our students to be the best they can be.

Thank you for spending some time with us today.

You can learn more about AJ and Colin on the Paralympic website.

    📚 The school holidays are fast approaching, and it’s the perfect time to squeeze in some extra reading for the Premier’s Reading Challenge! Check your child’s bag for their login details and help them make great progress over the break. The challenge ends on 19th September, so there’s still plenty of time to dive into some great books. If you need any further information, please don’t hesitate to contact the office. Happy reading! 📖✨

    Last week, we came together as a school community to celebrate the remarkable achievements of our students. Gold and Silver Awards were presented to those who demonstrated outstanding academic excellence and positive contributions to school life. The Principal's Awards recognised students who exemplified a growth mindset and unwavering commitment to learning. Additionally, two students were honoured with the Possum Token Badge for embodying our school's charisms—those unique spiritual gifts that inspire us to serve others and live out our mission. These recognitions highlight the dedication, resilience, and spirit of service that define our school community. Congratulations to all our award recipients

Let’s work together as a school community to bring **warmth, hope, and dignity** to those who need it most this winter. ❤️ #MiniVinnies #WinterAppeal #CompassionInAction #FaithHopeLove #WinterSleepout #EndOfTerm2#catholicschoolsparra

🌞 What a beautiful sunny day it was for our Athletics Carnival yesterday! From the first race to the final relay, our students gave their all—cheering each other on, displaying outstanding sportsmanship and celebrating every achievement, big or small. We saw the charisms of inclusivity and respect truly come to life. Students supported one another across all year levels, embraced challenges with determination, and lifted each other up in moments of success and struggle. Congratulations to all our athletes for showing such excellence in sport—your effort and enthusiasm made this day a shining example of our school spirit. Stay tuned for more pics of all grades throughout the day.🏃‍♀️🏅💙 \#AthleticsCarnival #InclusiveExcellence #SchoolSpirit #RespectInAction #SunnyDaySuccess#CSPD

❄️ Do You Want to Build a Snowman? ☃️ Last week in Kindergarten, our writing stimulus was all about the magic of snow! Students had the chance to play with fake snow and use their imaginations to create their very own snowmen. From tiny snow hats to sparkly scarves, their creations were as unique as their ideas. Inspired by the experience, students then wrote about what it would be like to build a snowman — and the results were full of creativity, giggles, and snowy adventures! 📝✨ Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese
