Thank you to all the dads, grandads, father figures, families and friends who joined us for recreation time and a sweet treat, followed by a liturgy. Your positivity, warmth, and smiles filled our school with such a special energy. It was wonderful to see our community come together to celebrate the important role fathers and father figures play in our lives. A huge thank you also to our P&F for organising the delicious donuts with Western Sydney Bakery โ they were very much enjoyed! ๐ We are truly blessed to belong to such a supportive and connected community. We hope you all enjoy a beautiful Father's Day. Stay tuned as we drop more photos later today.

๐ **Celebrating Student Success!** ๐ We are so proud of our students who represented our school at the Voice of Youth cluster final at St Thomas Aquinas, Springwood, on Thursday last week. ๐ One of our students received the Social Justice Award for a powerful and thought-provoking speech entitled Beauty Standards. Her words challenged us to reflect on the nature of images presented in media and the impact they have on young people and inspired us to see the dignity and worth in every person. ๐ Another student courageously spoke about disrespect in childrenโs sport, calling for fairness, respect and integrity on and off the field. Both students demonstrated confidence, passion, and a commitment to making the world a better place. ๐๐ Congratulations to our Voice of Youth speakers โ you have made our whole school community proud! ๐คโจ
