Last Thursday, two of our Year 6 students Cielo and Monique participated in the Blacktown Cluster Voice of Youth Final against 6 other competitors from 3 different schools within the Blacktown area.
Although the girls were nervous, they presented their speeches with poise and confidence. There were a variety of speeches that informed, persuaded and entertained the audience. The contestants were judged on the content of their speech, their use of voice and gestures and the overall effectiveness of their speech to engage the audience.
We are so proud of Monique and Cielo for representing our school in the Blacktown Voice of Youth Finals. Congratulations to Monique who came runner up in our cluster final! A fantastic effort by both girls!

Last Thursday and Friday we had the pleasure of hosting 6 Japanese Primary school students from Sugao Gakuen School in Tokyo. The Year 5 & 6 students were brave enough to accompany their Principal and teacher from Japan all the way to Australia to put their English skills to the test. Both the Japanese students and the St Bernies students were excited to meet each other, learn from each other and play together. What an amazing experience for everyone! Thanks also to some of our families who took the students into their homes to immerse them in Australian living. ππ―π΅ππ―π΅ππ―π΅ππ―π΅ππ―π΅

Happy happy birthday to all our JULY BIRTHDAYS! They have had a wonderful time celebrating their birthdays this month with family and friends. They had parties at home; went to Flip Out, Winter Fest & Canberra; ate chocolate cake, ice cream cake, strawberry cake & cheesecake. They were excited to get LEGO, ice skating Barbie, books and someone even got a puppy. But most of all they loved celebrating with friends at school. Hereβs to another great year ahead!!! ππππππ₯³π€©ππ»πΈ

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.

We always love it when we can come together as a community to celebrate Jesus' love for us. Reconciliation Week was a perfect time to gather in God's name as Jesus was an excellent example of the power and importance of reconciliation! ππππππππππ

On our Reconciliation Celebration Day, we were blessed to have Uncle Brad come and talk with all the students to deepen their understanding of Indigenous culture. He shared Indigenous tools, their purpose and significance and also how they are made. Our students loved this time, especially being able to watch how these tools were made. Thanks Uncle Brad. ππππππππππ
