Year 9 Commerce students hosted the Gilroy Catholic College annual Market Day.
As part of their Commerce assessment task, students are given the opportunity to run their own mini-businesses with profits given to the St Vincent De Paul Society. The students have put a lot of time and effort into conducting market research, developing a product and perfecting their business plans. Congratulations to all the Commerce students for all their effort, team work and positive attitude!

PDSSSC Basketball Gala Day Recently, our Junior and Intermediate Boys Basketball teams attended the PDSSSC Basketball Gala Day at the Penrith Valley Regional Sports Centre. Both teams competed brilliantly throughout the day and represented the College with pride. Our Intermediate team won 3 out of 5 games, with each match coming right down to the wire, narrowly missing out on a finals appearance. Our Junior team also won 3 out of 5 games, progressing through to the semi-finals before falling just short in the final. These teams have also been competing each Thursday in the PDSSSC competition, and it has been fantastic to see their growth, teamwork, and determination throughout the season. We are extremely proud of the way both teams competed, displayed outstanding sportsmanship throughout the day, and represented the College so positively. Thank you to Mr Garland and Mr Mason for accompanying and supporting the teams, as well as the various students who assisted with scoring duties across the day.

Recently, Years 7–9 attended a powerful performance by Brainstorm Productions on resilience, wellbeing, and navigating life’s challenges. The Hurting Game follows Maddie and Tom as they face peer pressure, online struggles, and identity challenges. Through conflict and reflection, they discover the importance of self-compassion and genuine connections. Based on real student experiences and developed with a clinical psychologist, the performance sparked meaningful conversations about mental health and online life. #gilroyvalues #wellbeingmatters #BrainstormProductions

The Year 12 Retreat is a pivotal moment in the Gilroy journey—a time to step away from the demands of the HSC and everyday life, to pause and reflect on the fullness of our life's journey in the context of a Catholic education. During the retreat, our seniors shared deep conversations, moments of quiet reflection, and plenty of laughter as they explored their faith, their friendships, and their future paths. From shared meals to the powerful "Letter to Self" session, this experience has strengthened the bonds of our 2026 cohort. We are so proud of the vulnerability and leadership shown by our Year 12 students as they prepare for the final chapters of their high school journey. #GilroyCatholicCollege #Year12Retreat #ClassOf2026 #FaithAndSpirit #SeniorJourney
