The girls were invited to introduce themselves and to speak about NYSF, The National Youth Science Forum. The girls have been fortunate to gain sponsorship from the club for this program, which will take place in Canberra during the 2025 January holidays. The girls represented themselves, their families and their school very well, speaking eloquently about their aspirations for the program and their future, engaging with the audience and impressing many of the Rotary members. Congratulations to both Amber and Celine on their efforts!

Year 8 Stem Challenge Over the last few weeks, students in year 8 have been working in groups to build a bionic hand using materials such as straws, string and tape. Each science class had worked through a number of challenges to select which group would represent them in the final challenge. Students had to use their hand to pick up balls, elastic bands and perform some sign language, mimicking the functions of a real hand. Congratulations to all the students who participated in this engineering challenge, and in particular to all of our finalists and our challenge winners Gabriella, Jacinta and Sophie! Awesome effort!

The program aims to give students a broader understanding of the opportunities available to them in the STEM field.

During their experience, students will engage with industry partners, academics and research providers in the STEM field, they will also be involved in tours of science and technology facilities as well as learn about cutting edge research. We wish the girls the very best for their experience and look forward to hearing about their adventures!

Today, on All Saints' Day, we as a Catholic and a school community celebrate the lives and examples of the saints and pray for their intercession. Dear God, Thank you for the example of the Saints. I desire to join in their company, worshipping you forever in Heaven. Please help me follow their footsteps, and yours, Jesus Christ. Please help me to conform myself to Your image, seeking Your will in all things, as the Saints did. Please help me to devote myself, and all that I do, to Your glory, and to the service of my neighbours. Amen
