Year 7 Reflection Day: A Day of Learning and Fun

On Thursday, September 5, all Year 7 students participated in a special Reflection Day at the Primary Campus. The day was centred around deepening their understanding of our Mercy Charism and learning about the inspiring lives of our House Patrons.
Students, grouped by their Houses, rotated through four engaging activities, including dancing, art, teamwork challenges, and a guided tour of our Church. The day was filled with energy, learning, and community spirit.

A huge thank you to Maddie Burton, Dan Hull, Lucinda Van Raad, Dillon Price and Jade Newman for making this day such a success!

Year 11 Leadership Day: Preparing for the Future

On Thursday, August 29, our Year 11 students gathered at the Parish Hall for a day focused on leadership, marking an important step in their journey toward Year 12. The day began with a special Mass at St. Mary’s Church, where they joined the Kindergarten students in worship.

Throughout the day, students explored the key qualities of effective leaders and examined various leadership styles. They also reflected on how St. Matthews values and the call "to be more" shape their approach to leadership.

It was an inspiring day, with staff praising the students for their insight and potential, highlighting a bright future ahead.

A big thank you to Nick Hammond, Blaney McCarthy-English, Cass McCarney and Jade Newman for organising such a successful day!

The Pope's Prayer Intention for September

For the cry of the earth

We pray that each one of us will hear and take to heart the cry of the Earth and of victims of natural disasters and climate change, and that all will undertake to personally care for the world in which we live.
