Dance students impressed the crowd with a range of dazzling performances
Hundreds of students from 35 primary and secondary Catholic schools from across the Diocese showcased their creative talents in a series of music, dance and strings performances throughout June, culminating in the ‘Best Of’ performance on 23 June.
The showcase events demonstrated the high calibre of choral, music and dance work from Catholic schools, under the Parramatta Diocese’s creative and performing arts initiative, CAPTIVATE.
The program provides learning and performance experiences for students, as well as builds expertise and a sense of community across the system. CAPTIVATE is very popular with five new schools joining the program since last year.

This week we launched The Gumnut Gardening Club. These children have volunteered their time to work in our garden during their lunch break. We are hoping to have gardening goals that we will achieve each week. These goals will eventually lead to a beautiful functioning garden that will look gorgeous and also produce things that we can use and eat. This week’s goal was to learn about our worm farms. We fed our little worm friends for the holidays and put them to bed. We also did a lot of cleaning up and created an enormous pile of fern fronds so our garden beds look tidy.![525045016300196_932203772250983-1]()

OLN acknowledged Harmony Day by students wearing ORANGE. They also made crosses for Good Friday. Harmony Day is about inclusiveness, respect and belonging for all Australians. It is a day to celebrate all the different cultures that are a part of Australia. Orange signifies the freedom of ideas and the encouragement of mutual respect.
