Welcome to Term 2 to all you Sport Superstars!

We hope you had a wonderful break with family/friends and are ready for a fun filled sport term. To start the term off we have our upcoming North Shore Zone Cross Country in Week 2. Students who are successful in this event will go on to represent Holy Family at the Broken Bay Cross Country. Holy Family wishes all the 44 students that have made it to the North Shore Zone Cross Country all the best of luck. Go Holy Family! 

Congratulations to all 44 students. The North Shore Cross Country will be held on Wednesday 7th May 2025 at Pennant Hills.
