Year 11 Supporters' Day

We were fortunate that the weather held out and gave us a beautiful day for our recent Supporters' Day. The sunshine and clear skies made for the perfect backdrop to an exciting day filled with energy, competition, and community spirit.

A heartfelt thank you goes out to everyone who came along and helped make the day such a success: Joanna Crisafulli who held the fort up at the Powell Pavilion for the day, Claire Bogoeska, Daniela Giannini, Tanya Maronese, Rachel Suriano, Diana Sesar, Gabriela Costa, Natasha Caristo, Haez Kim, Damian Bridge, Sue Hardman, Rita Borg, Lucy Kassis, James Coorey, Tess Burnicle, Caterina Zangari, Margaret McDonald, Mary Sattout, Paula Ibarra Robin Raheb, Rita Ciofani, Caroline Gainsford, Stacey D’Amico, Michael Garrett, Alison Auland, Chris Malone and Tim Valtwies, Fiona Scullion, Belinda Barakat and Caroline Chahin. Your time, enthusiasm, and support are what makes events like these truly special.

A very special thank you to Jamey and Nuen Poyaoan, along with their boys Samuel and Luke, for their invaluable help setting up on Saturday morning – your early efforts set the tone for the day.  

We were also delighted to see the return of Jason Auland on the barbeque, serving up delicious food with Danielle Johnston. Thank you both for keeping everyone well-fed and happy. We’d also like to thank Joe and Bianca Bova for their fantastic assistance on the barbeque and with serving throughout the day. 

A big thank you to Gemma Donegan for all the wonderful,sweet treats she made. Your homemade goodies were a real hit and added a special touch to the day that everyone loved.

A special thank you to Brett McDonald, our resident butcher, who always goes the extra mile to ensure we have the correct products for the day. His unwavering support, especially when we called for a restock throughout the day, was truly appreciated. We are so grateful for his continued help and commitment.

Our sincere thanks as well to the students who helped set up the Powell Pavilion on Friday afternoon: Rueben Rochester, Christian Alam, and Will Gliddon. Your efforts behind the scenes did not go unnoticed.

Finally, thank you to those who helped with the pack-up at Breen Oval: Vincent Nguyen, Cillian Frisby, and Aum Parmar. Your willingness to lend a hand at the end of a long day was greatly appreciated.

Once again, thank you to everyone who contributed – big or small – to a wonderful day of sports, fun, and school spirit.

Heartfelt Thank You for Attending the Faith Forum

We would like to extend a big thank you to everyone who came and attended the Faith Forum last night. It was an incredibly informative evening, filled with meaningful discussions and insights shared amongst fellow parents/carers. It’s events like these that truly help to strengthen our school community and allow us to grow together in faith.

A special thank you to Ms Gillian Daley for organising the forum. Your dedication and hard work made the evening run smoothly, and we’re grateful for the opportunity you provided for our parents/carers to come together and reflect on the important aspects of faith and education.

We would also like to express our gratitude to the following staff members, who generously gave up their time to attend and contribute to the evening’s discussions:  

Mrs Jasmine Porter, Mrs Brittney Fogliani, Mr James Crino and Mr Mathew Herro.

Your involvement and willingness to engage with parents/carers helped make the evening a success, and we are so thankful for your support.

Thank you again to everyone who participated, and we look forward to more opportunities to come together in the future.
