Marian Grotto and Reflective Garden

We are very excited - the statue for our Marian grotto has arrived! 

The Marian grotto and reflective garden, on the grounds of OLSC, will honour Mary the patron of our school and provide a special place for students, teachers and our community to gather in prayer and reflection.  

We are calling on any adults in our school community that may have experience in designing, building, concreting, stonework etc. to assist in this project (which is still in the very early developmental phase).

If you have any expertise in a field/trade that would be relevant for this project, we would love to hear from you. Please contact me at: jdini@olscwyn.catholic.edu.au

Voice to Parliament

Earlier this year, the Catholic bishops of Australia invited all of us to engage in the discussion and close reading of the Uluru Statement from the heart. 

Archbishop Peter Comensoli has stated: "My hope is simply that Catholics will be inspired by Jesus to join the hard work of finding constitutional recognition of the voice of First Peoples into our Parliament and that reconciliation will find new energy and witness at this moment in history." 

As the Prime Minister has now confirmed the date of the referendum on an Indigenous Voice to Parliament, it may be beneficial to take some time to read over the bishops' statement below:
