🎭✨ A little sneak peek from today's Matinee Performance of Matilda Jr.! Our K–4 students thoroughly enjoyed the show and had the opportunity to take part in a special Q&A session with the cast afterwards. From "How do you remember all your lines?" and "How long did rehearsals take?" to "Do you get nervous on stage?" and "Are you happy when you're performing?" β€” there were plenty of thoughtful and curious questions from our youngest audience members. Who knows? We may have some future performers sitting in the audience! 🌟 Tonight, our cast can't wait to perform for the wider community. Doors open at 6:00pm for a 6:30pm start, so arrive early to secure the best seats available. 🎟️ While all performances initially sold out, due to overwhelming demand we've released an additional 30 seats per night. Don't miss your chance to see this incredible production β€” tickets are still available, but be quick! We can't wait to see you there! πŸ“šπŸ«πŸŽΆ #MatildaJr #SantaSophiaCatholicCollege #PerformingArts #StudentTalent #ShowWeek

β„οΈπŸ’™ On Friday 12 June, almost 80 Santa Sophia students participated in our annual Vinnies Winter Sleepout β€” our largest Sleepout yet. The experience challenged students to step outside their comfort zones and gain a deeper understanding of homelessness and disadvantage in our community. Supplied with only cardboard, a simple meal of soup and bread, and the support of one another, students spent the night in solidarity with those experiencing homelessness. Throughout the evening, students reflected on Scripture and Catholic Social Teaching, learned about the realities of homelessness in Australia, and considered how they can make a difference through service and compassion. We are incredibly proud to share that, thanks to the generosity of our school community, over $12,500 has been raised so far to support the important work of Vinnies Homeless Services and programs. A heartfelt thank you to our students, families, and staff for their support, and especially to the staff members who volunteered their time to help make the event possible. πŸ’™ Donations are still open for anyone who would like to contribute via the Santa Sophia Winter Appeal Fundraising Page https://my.fundraise.vinniesnsw.org.au/vinnies-school-sleepouts/santa-sophia-catholic-college-winter-appeal?tab=leaderboard&utm_source=chatgpt.com #VinniesWinterSleepout #WinterAppeal #SocialJustice #FaithInAction #MakingADifference

This term, our Fiji Immersion students, together with the Social Justice Crew, led a successful fundraising initiative to support their upcoming Immersion Trip to Fiji. Thanks to the incredible generosity of our school community, we sold more Krispy Kreme boxes exceeding last year's fundraising efforts. This achievement would not have been possible without the support of our students, families, and staff. A special thank you to everyone who contributed and to the students who dedicated their time and energy to making the fundraiser such a success. Everyone definitely enjoyed the donuts! πŸ₯― We look forward to following the students' journey and hearing about their experiences when they travel to Fiji during the July holidays. βœˆοΈπŸ‡«πŸ‡― #FijiImmersion #KrispyKreme #Fundraiser

Through real-world observation and inquiry, students were able to deepen their understanding of how organisms interact with and adapt to their environments. A fantastic day of learning beyond the classroom! 🌿🐾 #Year11Biology #SydneyZoo #LearningBeyondTheClassroom

πŸ™ Our weekly Rosary continues to grow! Students from Years 5–12 are invited each Thursday at recess to come together in prayer and reflection. Through the Rosary, students contemplate the mysteries of Jesus' life through the eyes of Mary, trusting in her loving intercession and deepening their faith. Now in its fifth week, it has been wonderful to see such a strong turnout from students across the College. We are grateful for the opportunity to gather as a faith community and spend time in prayer together. All students are welcome to join us each Thursday at recess. #FIAT #RosaryGroup #WeeklyRosary #FaithinAction

πŸ…πŸ”ͺ Our Certificate II in Hospitality – Food and Beverage students have successfully completed Competency Task 1, focusing on Workplace Health and Safety (WHS) in a commercial hospitality environment. Students prepared a delicious menu featuring Tomato Bruschetta, Chicken Schnitzel with Grilled Tomato, and Corn Fritters with Coleslaw Salad while demonstrating industry-standard food preparation techniques. Throughout the assessment, students developed and applied essential hospitality skills including safe knife handling, a range of knife cuts, butterflying chicken breasts, and using a salamander grill. The practical task also reinforced the importance of working safely, maintaining hygiene standards, and following correct kitchen procedures. Congratulations to all students on their hard work and professionalism as they continue building the skills required for a career in the hospitality industry. πŸ‘πŸ‘¨β€πŸ³πŸ‘©β€πŸ³ #CertificateIIHospitality #FoodAndBeverage #HospitalityTraining #WHS #KnifeSkills #CommercialCookery #VocationalEducation #FutureHospitalityProfessionals #HandsOnLearning

At Santa Sophia Catholic College, we were privileged to welcome Rabbi Zalman Kastel to work with our students as they authentically explored the Sacred Texts of Judaism. Through his wisdom, warmth and engaging storytelling, students gained a deeper understanding of the Jewish faith tradition and the significance of sacred scripture within Judaism. The experience was both intellectually enriching and deeply meaningful, fostering curiosity, respect and interfaith understanding within our learning community. We are incredibly grateful to Rabbi Zalman Kastel for generously sharing his knowledge, experiences and personal insights. Opportunities such as these help our students grow in empathy, dialogue and appreciation for the diverse faith traditions that enrich our world. Thank you for providing such an engaging and inspiring learning experience for our students and staff alike. #SantaSophiaCatholicCollege #FaithInAction #InterfaithDialogue #ReligiousEducation #SacredTexts #Judaism #CatholicEducation
