Careers Breakfast Inspires Future Pathways ๐ŸŒŸ The Senior Common Room was buzzing on Wednesday 27 August as 27 students joined our Careers Breakfast! ๐Ÿพ Dr Robert Zammit, renowned veterinarian, shared incredible stories from his career โ€” from caring for lion cubs to writing for magazines and working in media. He reminded students that your HSC doesnโ€™t define you, and life offers many pathways beyond school. ๐Ÿ’ก Mrs Cynthia Stanton, COO of Primary and Community Care Services, spoke about the impact of social prescribing and how health outcomes are shaped by more than medicine. She highlighted meaningful career paths in non-clinical roles after degrees in nursing, health science, and science. ๐Ÿ‘ Thank you to Dr Zammit and Mrs Stanton for generously sharing your time and insights. Our students gained so much from your experiences and advice! #SantaSophiaCareers #CareerExploration #StudentOpportunities #CareersBreakfast2025

๐ŸŒŠ๐Ÿš Over the past few weeks, our Year 9 and 10 Marine & Aquaculture Technologies students have been diving into the fascinating world of Rock Platforms. We had the privilege of visiting Long Reef, where students explored the unique ecosystem and discovered an incredible variety of marine life โ€” from colourful sea anemones and spiky sea urchins to sea slugs and so much more! ๐Ÿฆ‘โœจ Despite the rain, our efforts were rewarded with an unforgettable sight โ€” a pod of dolphins porpoising just off the coast! ๐Ÿฌ๐Ÿ’™ A hands-on experience like this truly brings classroom learning to life and deepens our appreciation for the amazing biodiversity along our coastlines. ๐ŸŒ๐ŸŒฟ #MarineStudies #LongReef #FutureMarineScientists Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese

In Year 11, during the module 'Critical Study of Literature', students have been analysing and deepening their understanding of Modernist poetry written by poets such as Sylvia Plath and W.B. Yeats. So what better way to transfer their understanding than by writing their own Modernist poetry? Since all poetry is meant to be recited, that's exactly what Year 11 English Advanced did! After hearing some thought provoking poetry, each student's composition was celebrated in the most appropriate way possible - finger snaps ๐Ÿซฐ๐Ÿซฐ #Year11English #Poetry #ModernistPoetry Catholic Schools Parramatta Diocese
