School String Ensemble
On Friday 14th March pupils at Holy Spirit Primary School celebrated Catholic Schools Week with a number of events.
The morning was spent buying books at the Book Fair and taking part in the school spell-a-thon. The money raised via sponsorship from family and friends will be used to fund different projects in the school.
After the spell-a-thon the children gathered in the Church to celebrate the Opening School Mass. It was a wonderful occasion shared with many family and friends. All the children participated with great enthusiasm and reverence. The school string ensemble made the event even more special by preforming Pachelbel’s Cannon at the Mass.
After Mass, the parents were served morning tea and then ushered into the MPA to see the students preform a variety of items. There were songs and poems presented each met with great applause from all those present. Parents were then invited to tour the classrooms and participate in an activity with their children.
The day was a great success and an excellent way to show parents and allow students to share what they are learning and doing at school.

๐ HUGE Congratulations to Rich Starwin! ๐ What a sensational performance! The whole Holy Spirit community is absolutely bursting with pride for our very own Rich Starwin, who has just bowled us over with his incredible achievement: making the Parramatta Team for cricket! ๐ฅณ Rich Starwin faced some seriously tough competition and absolutely smashed it out of the park during the trials. Making a representative team like this is a massive milestone and a testament to his dedication, skill, and hours spent in the nets and on the pitch. We know he'll be an absolute all-rounder and a key player for Parramatta. This is a huge moment, and we can't wait to follow Rich's journey as he takes the crease with his new squad. Go get 'em, Rich! We're all cheering for you! ๐

This week in Religion, Year 4 began our new unit titled โHow Can Jesus Be God and Human?โ โ๏ธ Weโve been taking a closer look at Jesus โ discovering that He is both fully God and fully human. Using our RE Learning Board, students work together in groups and explored symbols that show Jesusโ human side (like the manger, tools, and family) and His divine side (like the empty tomb, water turned to wine, and the Transfiguration). Through thoughtful discussion and creative activities, students are deepening their understanding of who Jesus truly is โ a wonderful mystery at the heart of our faith.
