Special Visit from Hills Shire Mayor Dr. Michelle Byrne! 🌟 Santa Sophia Catholic College had the privilege of welcoming Dr. Michelle Byrne, recently reelected Mayor of The Hills Shire, who spoke to our Year 5 HSIE classes. Dr. Byrne shared insights into the exciting development of The Gables, covering new state schools, parks, the beautiful lake feature, and the start of retail establishments like Bobby’s Bakehouse. Our students enjoyed sharing their favourite parks, discussing future housing plans, and asking their own questions. A true highlight was getting to see (and even wear!) the Mayor’s chain, an emblem of The Hills Shire’s history. Thank you, Dr. Byrne, for an inspiring visit! 👏

🌟 Happy All Saints Day! 🌟 This morning, our K-4 students celebrated All Saints Day with a heartfelt liturgy, dressed as their favourite saints. From Mother Mary to St. Francis of Assisi, St. Nicholas (aka Santa Claus), and the beloved soon-to-be-saint Blessed Carlo Acutis, it was a beautiful display of faith and inspiration. 🙏 All Saints Day reminds us to honour those who have gone before us, whom the Church considers saints, and to seek their prayers on our journey towards union with God in Heaven. ✨ #SantaSophiaFaith #santasophiacatholiccollege Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese

Our Year 3 students had an unforgettable day stepping back into the 19th century at The Australiana Pioneer Village! From tractor rides and butter churning to meeting farm animals 🧈 🐑 and trying out old-fashioned clothes washing, they immersed themselves in Australia’s past. A big thank you to The Friends of The Australiana Pioneer Village Society Inc. for creating such a fun, hands-on experience in history!🚜

💧 Exploring Water Recycling with Altogether! 💧 Two of our Year 8 HSIE classes had the amazing opportunity to visit the Altogether water treatment plant, located just a 10-minute walk from Santa Sophia Catholic College at 3 Red Gables Road. This local organisation is dedicated to helping homes use water more efficiently and recycle waste. On Monday, 28th October, students toured the plant and learned how wastewater is transformed into clear, recycled water for the community. They observed the tanks, the addition of treatment chemicals, ultraviolet light processes, and even watched membrane filtration in action from the rooftop! 🏭💧 A big thank you to Fiona and her team at Altogether for guiding us through this eye-opening experience. The students left inspired by the incredible technology that makes everyday water recycling possible! 🌍 #santasophiacatholiccollege #SantaSophiaHSIE

Congratulations to Tahlia Galardi! 🎉 Tahlia, one of our talented Year 10 Hospitality students, was selected by her teacher, Mrs. Blundell, to represent Santa Sophia in the prestigious VET WorldSkills Competition held on Tuesday, 22nd October, at CathWest Innovation College. This biennial event, co-hosted by CathWest Innovation College and St Columba’s Catholic College, is an incredible platform for VET in Schools (VETiS) students to demonstrate their skills in a competitive environment. Students are challenged to apply their learning across various trades and industries, showcasing the talents they've honed in class. Tahlia performed exceptionally well, displaying calmness, strong multi-tasking abilities, and top-notch problem-solving skills. 🙌 While the final results will be announced in the coming weeks, we’re already beyond proud of Tahlia’s achievements. No matter the outcome, her dedication and hard work have made us all proud! 💫 Well done, Tahlia! 👏
