Cardinal Newman School - Columbia, SC

Summer-summer-summertime! 😎 Are you having fun away from campus? Let us know what you're up to. Whether you're doing your summer reading by the pool, or on an international mission trip, we'd still love to hear about it! Safe to say we miss you ❤️

This week’s inaugural Boys Ministry Camp has been a huge success! This group of guys has enjoyed fellowship through games like kickball and arm wrestling (yes, arm wrestling!) while also leaning into their faith and learning more about how God is working in their lives every single day. They’ve had the chance to work on leadership, stewardship, discipleship…and of course, friendship. ❤️🖤🤍

Don't panic...but NINE WEEKS from today is the first day of school. There is still plenty of time left to:

✅ Get your summer work done 📝

During teacher appreciation week, our NJHS students put their creative skills to work in honor of our amazing faculty. Later in the week, NHS hand delivered superlative style awards to every faculty and staff member in the building. These small acts of kindness meant so much to the recipients!

It was a busy and exciting semester for our theatre students!

Our Musical Theatre class delighted audiences with a production of "The Rainbow Fish," bringing the beloved story to life through colorful costumes, music, and dance. Meanwhile, students in our Junior Drama Class performed "Murder on the 518" for families, classmates, and faculty under the direction of Drama III Honors students Violet Shenkar and Monica Serrano as part of their Directing Lab experience. Several Drama Club members also joined the production in supporting roles.

From performing on stage to directing behind the scenes, our students showcased tremendous creativity, collaboration, and talent. Bravo to all involved! 🎭✨
