Some of the dancers in action
Recently, the students in the primary grades competed in the Dance Fever competition at the State Sports Centre at Homebush.
The students had been practicing their dance moves every week in their lessons at school.
The Year 4 team were the winners of the group dance. The other teams narrowly missed out on a win.
Thank you to all participants.

βοΈπ Amazing Writing in Year 5! πβοΈ Our Year 5 writers have been busy applying their literacy learning to craft engaging and informative factual paragraphs. Using fact files on topics of interest, students identified strong main ideas, selected relevant supporting evidence, and carefully drafted, revised, and edited their work to strengthen their writing. They challenged themselves to write well-structured sentences using technical vocabulary and rich word choices, ensuring their paragraphs not only informed the reader but captured their interest from the very first sentence. We are incredibly proud of the persistence, creativity, and growing confidence our young authors are demonstrating in their Writing Workshops. ππ Keep up the fantastic work, Year 5!

π₯ποΈ Year 1 Celebrates Pentecost! ποΈπ₯ Our Year 1 students have been learning about the significance of Pentecost, exploring how the Holy Spirit came upon Jesusβ disciples and gave them the courage to share Godβs love with the world. As part of their learning, students discovered why Pentecost is known as the birthday of the Church and how we are called to live as Godβs people through unity, love, and faith. Wearing their vibrant flame crowns, Year 1 celebrated the Holy Spirit that lives within each of us, empowering us to spread kindness, joy, and hope in our school and community. What a wonderful way to bring faith to life! β€οΈβ¨π #Pentecost #Year1Faith #GrowingInChrist #StAndrewsPrimarySchool

π₯ͺπ Serving Our Community with Head, Heart and Hands ππ₯ͺ At St Andrewβs Primary School, our staff proudly come together twice each term to prepare sandwiches for those in need as part of our partnership with the St Vincent de Paul Society (Vinnies). This simple yet meaningful act of service supports people experiencing homelessness and food insecurity across our wider Western Sydney community. Through this initiative, our teachers put their faith into action, living out the Gospel call to serve others with compassion, generosity, and kindness. By working in solidarity for those less fortunate, we demonstrate discipleship through our head, heart, and hands, showing that even small acts of care can make a big difference. We are grateful for the opportunity to support the wonderful work of Vinnies and to help bring hope, dignity, and nourishment to members of our community. πβ¨ #FaithInAction #HeadHeartHands #StAndrewsCommunity #Vinnies #ServingOthers

Our Year 4 students put their persuasive writing skills to the test this week with a very unusual challengeβ¦ convincing their chairs to come back to class! πͺβοΈ The chairs were apparently tired of being rocked on, tipped back and dragged across the floor, so students created clever persuasive posters explaining why they deserved another chance! π A fun and creative way to showcase imagination, humour and powerful writing skills. πβ¨
