WE HELP EVERY STUDENT SHINE!
At St Bernadette's, we believe it is important for students to pursue interests to find what they are passionate about. We give them exposure to a range of exciting opportunities to unlock their creative potential, develop a talent or follow a passion.
WE HELP EVERY STUDENT SHINE!
CREATIVE AND PERFORMING ARTS
We encourage our students to explore their passions and talents. We have a range of opportunities available for students to participate in creative and performing arts activities and programs such as music, drama and dance. Students can be part of our School Concert Band and CAPTIVATE runs weekly instrument lessons for Years 4 and 5 students.

SCHOOL SPORT
Sport is a valued part of a school’s curriculum, contributing to the development of the whole child by providing opportunities for social, physical, emotional and moral learning. Participation, enjoyment and skill development are the cornerstones of school sport. Our students have the chance to participate in sports such as in sports such as netball, touch football and soccer, athletics, swimming and cross-country. We also offer dance and gymnastics programs for one term each year.
Representative pathways are also available through the Parramatta Diocesan Primary Schools Sports Council.

SOCIAL JUSTICE
Our students are offered a wide variety of local community activities to help develop a sense of pride, respect and responsibility for themselves and others. We regularly support Caritas, St Vincent De Paul and the Jesuit Social Services. We have also formed a positive connection with the local nursing home with students reaching out to residents through Christmas cards.

EXCURSIONS, CAMPS AND RETREATS
Every student loves to get out of the classroom and explore.
Our students benefit greatly from school trips where they are able to observe new things not available at school such as rare and exotic wildlife and plants, different cultures and the stories of our history. These experiences lead to deeper understanding of learning subjects.
Camps and retreats are also wonderful opportunities for students to develop independence, grow in faith, form strong friendships and make life-long memories!
