Pastoral Care & Wellbeing Coordinator

      As we head into our final week of what has been a very busy and rewarding term, the past fortnight has seen a number of activities and events conducted that have provided opportunities for students to enhance their wellbeing, in a spiritual, academic and personal context.

      We have seen students take part in Diocesan trials or Championships for Rugby League, Netball and Soccer, NSWCCC Swimming, Marist Gamechangers, Work Placement, Assessment Tasks across most year groups. Next week will see more Diocesan representative opportunities, our Easter Liturgy on Thursday and our annual Cross Country day on Friday April 11. A fantastic community event to cap off what has been a very fruitful term of engagement.

      As students head off on a well earned break, some students and families may find the downtime of the holidays challenging in terms of overcoming boredom or finding things to do that continue to enhance the wellbeing of individuals. Both Campbelltown and Camden Councils are providing a range of events and activities to celebrate Youth Week, April 9 to 17, which coincides with the first week of the holiday break. Click on the image or the link below if you would like to explore some of the options that both councils are providing during this time.
