As part of the Holy Cross 20th Anniversary celebrations, the school held a Skip-a-Thon on Friday the 13th of September.
This involved the students participating in various skipping challenges and routines that built upon their skills that were taught on Monday during our skipping program led by MultiSport. The aim was to have fun as well as focus on fitness skills our students had been learned this term.
Money raised from the Skip-a-Thon will be used to purchase more reading resources for our school and our students. We thank you for your support in improving the learning opportunities for our students. Students were encouraged to arrange sponsorship for the Skip-a-Thon. A sponsorship card was provided where students were able to ask family members and friends to be a sponsor.

Congratulations to all our students who ran at the Parramatta Diocesan Cross Country. ๐ Lots of excitement and energy, and lots of nerves with many running for the first time. We had some amazing results, several students placing in the top 20 of their event, and a special mention to Louis H (Year 6) and Ava L (Year 5) who place 6th in their races. They will now compete at the NSWCCCCPS Cross Country in June. ๐๐โโ๏ธ

Today, our school community gathered for a moving ANZAC Day Commemoration to honour the courage and sacrifice of those who served and continue to serve in our armed forces. It was a privilege to see our students show such profound respect during the wreath-laying ceremony and the sounding of the Last Post. Through their silence and reflection, we ensure that the spirit of the ANZACSโcourage, mateship, and sacrificeโlives on in the next generation. "They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old; Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them."
