REC News
Dear Parents & Carers,
Welcome to 2025! We have an exciting year ahead with many special celebrations to share together. I look forward to working with teachers and families to develop our students’ knowledge, faith and love for Jesus.
SCS Theme
Each year, a theme is created for Sydney Catholic Schools that is centred on Pope Francis’ message for youth and a Scripture passage for WYD reflection. The chosen Scripture for
2025 focuses on how the baptised are called to be witnesses in the modern world, a call that is also applicable to all SCS staff, students and families. Part of being a witness is the call to seek and promote what is good, true and beautiful in creation. This is core to Catholic education and a matter for rejoicing, especially in the Jubilee Year of 2025.
