Our schools are cracking the reading code

Do you remember how you learned to read? For a vital skill that is linked to all other learning, it’s surprisingly difficult to explain how to go about learning it.

Six Habits That Help Children Develop a Love of Reading

Book Week is a celebration of stories, imagination and creativity, but helping children love reading isn't just something that happens during one week of the year. The good news? It doesn't take expensive resources or hours of extra time. Often, it's the small, everyday habits that make the biggest difference.

On Friday 31st July, the students of OLMC took part in a whole school Faith in Action initiative: Winter Warmies. Students came to school dressed in their snuggly warm attire, ready to learn a little bit more of the impacts of hardship & homelessness in the lives of everyday Australians. With a warm cup of Milo, sitting around Homeless David in the cold morning air, students were able to visually understand what being homeless might look like. Some of our very thoughtful & compassionate students left some of their recess near David, to enjoy when he woke up. What a beautiful sentiment to witness! Thank you to our parents and carers for your generous donation to our 2026 Vinnies Winter Appeal.

💙 Celebrating Our Lady of Mount Carmel Feast Day & Grandparents Day 💙 What a wonderful day of faith, family and community! Last Friday, we gathered to celebrate the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel while honouring our grandparents and the special people who nurture, guide and love us each day. Our students led a beautiful Mass with reverence and joy before families came together to share a picnic across our school grounds. It was heartwarming to see generations celebrating together, reminding us that our school is truly a community where everyone belongs. A heartfelt thank you to our parish, staff, students, families and grandparents for making the day such a memorable celebration. Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us. 💙 Saints Anne and Joachim, pray for us. 💛
