The Sacred Heart Cross Country was held today on the 4th of April at Sydney Smith Park. Our students were very eager to drain some excess energy and were keen to participate, putting in an extra effort in an attempt to make it through to the Diocesan Cross Country.
The 8 year old boys and girls led the way in the first event and achieved their best, each age group to follow did not disappoint! We had a total of 70 runners across all of the events and each person played a key part in making the day a huge success.
The care and genuine kindness each competitor had for one another was amazing to witness, we're very proud of the sportsmanship that our students demonstrated!
From cheering in the grandstand and words of encouragement to the physical touch of a hand when someone had fallen are just a few examples.
A big thank you to the parents that helped on the day as well as all of the staff who encouraged the kids to keep going when they were feeling tired and ready to give up.

In Creative Arts, Stage One have been learning about sculptures and how to manipulate clay to create a 3D object. They created a Clay Fish sculpture which involved using a rolling pin to flatten the clay then carved a fish shape and added the features. The Clay Fish were then fired in a kiln at Catherine McAuley Westmead. The students then painted their fish and added details. Look at their amazing sculptures. We would like to thank Catherine McAuley Westmead and the Creative Arts team for assisting us with the firing of the clay. A big thank you also, to Karen Andrews from Captivate for teaching us all about clay. #cspd

We are certainly busy bees in Stage 1. During Literacy we have been researching and writing about bees, also known as Apis Mellifera. We know so many facts too! Did you know that bees can’t see the colour red? So much of our fruit and vegetables are only made possible because of bees! Have a look at our great learning.🐝
