Yesterday, Gilroy Catholic College’s Year 12 Hospitality students hosted their Café event for staff, preparing and serving a wonderful selection of food and beverages. The dishes looked incredible and staff were even treated to refreshing “nohitos”! The students did a fantastic job and demonstrated impressive professionalism throughout the event. Staff thoroughly enjoyed the opportunity to sit back and enjoy a delicious lunch prepared and served by our talented students. By all reports, the food looked amazing and tasted just as good! Congratulations to our Year 12 Hospitality students on a very successful Café event!

Last week, students from Gilroy Catholic College took part in the 2026 Big Water Walk, an initiative by Caritas Australia during the Lenten season. Through this powerful experience, our students walked in solidarity with communities around the world who must travel long distances every day to access clean water – a basic human right that many still live without. As we continue our Lenten journey, our participation in Project Compassion reminds us that faith is lived through action. Together, we are called to show compassion, promote justice and support those in need.

Last Thursday, Year 9 students at Gilroy Catholic College participated in presentations delivered by Enlightened Education. The boys attended the Goodfellas Program, which aims to equip young men with the skills to build strong and respectful relationships, advocate for themselves and their peers, and contribute positively to their school community. The program encourages students to move beyond stereotypes while developing practical skills in conflict management, strengthening connections within their cohort and school, and building positive wellbeing habits. The girls took part in the Butterfly Effect Workshop, which explored topics including friendships, feminism and sisterhood, setting personal boundaries, journaling, and time management. The workshop provided practical tools to help students navigate challenges, build confidence, and develop the mindset needed to flourish as happy and empowered teenagers.

Harmony Week 16-20 March This week we are celebrating Harmony Week, recognising and celebrating the many cultures, languages and backgrounds that make up our college community. Throughout the week we will be sharing prayers in different languages, enjoying music from around the world at bell times, and our College Leaders will be running activities at recess and lunch. On Friday, we will celebrate “Wear Something Orange Day” to promote the Harmony Week theme, “Everyone Belongs.” Students are invited to wear something orange - with their school uniform, not in place of it - to show that at our school, everyone is welcomed, valued and respected. #HarmonyWeek #EveryoneBelongs

Inspiration in the heart of Sydney! Recently, Gilroy Catholic College Year 11 and 12 Elective Music students attended the Encore concert at the Sydney Opera House. This special event highlights some of the most outstanding HSC Music performances and compositions from students across NSW. Experiencing these exceptional works in such an iconic venue was both inspiring and motivating for our students. It offered a valuable insight into the dedication, creativity and hard work that goes into achieving excellence in music. A fantastic opportunity for our young musicians to learn, reflect and be inspired! #GilroyCatholicCollege #Encore #SydneyOperaHouse #HSCMusic #MusicEducation

What a fantastic day in the pool! On Tuesday, our Year 7 students dove into our annual Swim Day, bringing plenty of energy and enthusiasm with them. Throughout the session, students built confidence in the water while sharpening their skills across a range of important survival strokes. A big thank you to the staff and students who helped make the day such a success!

On Wednesday evening, Gilroy Catholic College warmly welcomed families, friends and prospective students as the College opened its doors to the wider community for a vibrant and engaging Opening Evening. Throughout the evening, future students explored the campus and experienced the dynamic learning environment at Gilroy, participating in a variety of interactive games, activities, hands-on science experiments and ball games on our new basketball courts. The enthusiasm and excitement from visiting families created a wonderful atmosphere across the College. The success of the evening was made possible through the dedicated organisation of our staff and the generous support of our students, who volunteered their time to welcome families and share their experiences of life at Gilroy. Visitors enjoyed music performances, delicious cupcakes prepared by our Hospitality students, and reflections by our College Principal, student leaders and even two of our brand new Year 7 students! Events such as this highlight the strong sense of community and opportunity that defines Gilroy Catholic College. We look forward to welcoming future students and families to our College community in 2027 and beyond. A reminder that the final date for receipt of enrolment applications to be considered for first round offers will be Friday 27 March. First round letters of offer will be sent during the week beginning 25 May 2026.
