✨🎉 Feast Day Celebrations! 🎉✨
The Feast Day of St Aloysius Gonzaga, our patron saint, is always a highlight on our school calendar—and this year was no exception! 💙🙏
We began the day with a STEM Showcase and Open Classrooms, where our students proudly shared their empowered learning with parents, carers and grandparents. It was incredible to see their curiosity, creativity, and confidence in action! 🔬🤖📚
This was followed by a beautiful Feast Day Mass, celebrated with great reverence. The liturgy was truly lifted by the amazing singing and the musical talents of our Amadeus Extension Group.
To top it all off, the entire school gathered for a picnic at Gunnamatta Park —a perfect way to celebrate together in friendship and spirit.

Days like these remind us what a special faith and learning community we are! 💫

🏃‍♂️ Athletics Carnival 2026🏃‍♂️
Yesterday’s soggy conditions at The Ridge couldn't dampen the excitement of our annual Athletics Carnival! Our students embraced the challenge with determination and resilience, giving their best in every event while having plenty of fun along the way.

The highlight of the day was the incredible community spirit on display - cheering, encouragement, and teamwork shone through despite the rain. We are so proud of our students for their positive attitudes and enthusiasm!

Well done to everyone who made the day such a success. A special thank you to Mr Lennon and Mrs Rapp for their organisation and coordination of the event, despite adverse conditions! 👏🏽💙
