Our Term 2 Performing Arts Soiree started as an informal evening showcase but all thanks to the enthusiasm of our school community (parents, students, staff) turned into a grand evening of musical and dance performances.
Within two hours of release, the Soiree was booked out and quick arrangements were made to move the event to a bigger venue. Thanks to the Catholic Learning Community of John XXIII, we were able to host our Soiree at The HUB, an impressive performance hall, ensuring all families and friends could attend.
The evening was a culmination of a collaborative effort from staff and students, which resulted in a fantastic night enjoyed by our whole community.
Well done to all students who performed tonight and put on a great show. Our community is already looking forward to the next Soiree, which we'll be able to host in our own performance hub in Box Hill.

A huge shout-out to our amazing parents for putting together these incredible costumes! What a fantastic job! π And an equally big thank you to our wonderful Kindy teachers for putting together such a beautiful celebration.

A beautiful day in the city for our Year 11 Photography students! πΈπΏ As part of their Alternative Photography unit, students visited the Royal Botanic Garden Sydney to gather inspiration and photographic source material for their exploration of cyanotypes, anthotypes and botanical subject matter. From observing natural forms to documenting textures, patterns and light, the excursion provided the perfect opportunity to connect theory with practice in one of Sydney's most inspiring outdoor classrooms. π±β¨ #Photography #Art #RoyalBotanicalGarden #Sydney

As part of the visit from Koka High School, Miss Macpherson and Mr Djakovic brought together our Year 11 Society and Culture class and their Japanese peers for a meaningful intercultural exchange. π―π΅ As part of their current unit on Intercultural Communication, our students presented a PowerPoint showcasing Australian culture, our education system and life at Santa Sophia Catholic College. They then took part in small-group discussions, sharing stories, asking questions and learning about each other's cultures before enjoying a tour of the College together. This enriching experience allowed our Year 11 students to build new connections, broaden their perspectives and put their learning into practice. We thank the students and staff of Koka High School for visiting and making the experience so memorable. @koka_high.official #InternationalExchange #SocietyandCulture

Our Year 10 Marine students are making a real difference for one of Sydney's most iconic marine species β the endangered White's Seahorse! Through the Seahorse Saviour program, students have become marine conservationists, learning about habitat loss, marine ecosystems, and the science behind protecting local wildlife. Their journey culminated in deploying seahorse hotels into Sydney Harbour, helping to restore vital habitat and support the recovery of White's Seahorse populations. This incredible hands-on experience allowed students to work alongside marine scientists, apply their classroom learning in the field, and contribute to genuine conservation efforts. We are so proud of our students for demonstrating curiosity, teamwork, and environmental stewardship while helping to protect our amazing marine environmentβone seahorse at a time! #SeahorseSaviourProgram #MarineandAquaculture #ProjectHumble2026
