On Thursday, 25th of July, OLMC celebrated NAIDOC week as a school community.
Julie and Josh, leaders from the Jarara Indigenous Team led the day, beginning with a smoking ceremony to cleanse our environment and promote wellbeing for semester two. Students were absolutely captivated with the ceremony, as were teachers and family members.
They then shared Indigenous culture and history with all our grades through artifacts, language, stories, movement and art. Some of the topics students explored were tools & technologies, songlines, symbolism and dreamings, The Stolen Generation, reconciliation and NAIDOC.
We would like to sincerely thank the Jarara Indigenous Team for providing our community with such a wonderful experience and look forward to working in partnership with them in the near future.

As October, the Month of the Rosary, comes to a close, our Spirit Squad has been busy interviewing students from Kindergarten to Year 6 about what the Rosary means to them 💙 From finding peace in prayer to feeling close to Mary and Jesus, our students shared heartfelt reflections that remind us how prayer takes many forms. Through our daily decade of the Rosary and the Family Rosary Bags, our community has taken time this month to pause, reflect and pray together, growing in faith and love. Our Spirit Squad members also found this time meaningful and insightful. Lawrence shared that he was inspired by all the students' answers and, as the photographer, he was surprised by how eager they were for photos and to be interviewed. Kristopher shared that he was inspired by how open all students were to speak about their faith and experience. See our student reflections along with some cheeky snaps from our Spirit Squad in the photos below. Our Lady of Mount Carmel, pray for us 🙏

Today our Yr4 students are investigating part-to-part ratios and part-to-whole ratios by surveying their peers and using real life data. Some of the surveys questions include 🤔Do you do your homework all the time? 😄Do you like your siblings? 😍What is your prefered topic, Cartesian plane or Ratios? Students are now using taught mathematical strategies to demonstrate how they simplify their ratios and write reflective statements to explain their thinking. It’s safe to say that some data will be staying within the safety of lesson 🤣

During Religion lessons, students from Kindergarten to Year 6 learned about the Carmel Impact Water Project. They explored the importance of supporting the Carmelite communities of Raimea and Zumalai in Timor-Leste by helping to restore water tanks and pipes to provide clean and safe water for daily use. On Wednesday, students filled buckets and cups with water and took part in the Walk for Water Challenge. This fun yet powerful experience reminded us that our brothers and sisters in Timor-Leste must travel on foot every day just to access a basic necessity — fresh, clean water — something we often take for granted in our homes and at school. On Friday, students came dressed in Something Blue — a colour symbolising our prayers for hope and change for the people of Timor-Leste. These are the moments when we are truly called to be the hearts and hands of Christ, showing love, compassion, and generosity to others. The week concluded with a Mission Liturgy, led by our energetic Spirit Squad. Students participated reverently, and we thank each and every one of them for their thoughtful engagement and their love for others throughout the week.
