From under the southern sky, reach for the stars - MacKillop House Update

The new house system has had an incredible beginning to 2023’s academic year here at the College. Being one of the house leaders and seeing every student compete in a competition or activity we have running to earn house points, it makes us extremely proud to know that they are engaging in the Community.

In Term 1 we had our annual College swimming carnival, where Glowery (blue) House took home the win. Due to unexpected circumstances, we could not all participate in our College athletics day or cross country.

At the beginning of Term 2 we had 2 house liturgies (Glowery and Ricci House) which brought our house communities together as all years 7-12 students gathered and celebrated our respective patron saints feast days.

This helped us to continue to develop our knowledge on who the saints are, what they did and why we celebrate them. Keep an eye out for a house event that will be being discussed to earn even more house points!!

But to everyone, continue what you are doing and keep engaging into the school community.
