Police Defenders Leadership Program at Gilroy Catholic College Over Terms 3 and 4, a group of Year 9 students at Gilroy Catholic College are participating in the Police Defenders Leadership Program, an initiative proudly delivered by officers from Castle Hill Police Station. This engaging, fitness-based program places strong emphasis on accountability, positive attitudes, and constructive behaviours, while nurturing essential leadership skills. Through a range of practical activities and team-based challenges, students are encouraged to explore the value of influence, teamwork, and respectful communication. The program aims to foster a positive mindset around leadership and responsibility, empowering students to recognise how their actions can contribute to a safe, respectful, and collaborative school environment. By stepping into leadership roles and embracing challenges, students learn what it means to lead by example—both inside and outside the classroom. The Police Defenders Leadership Program will make a lasting impact, equipping our young leaders with the tools and confidence to support and inspire their peers, while building stronger connections between the school and local community services. #thehillspoliceareacommand #cspd

Year 11 Reflection Day - with input from Year 11 Student Ella. On Year 11 Reflection Day, we participated in a variety of activities designed to strengthen our sense of community and bring us closer together as a cohort. Through teamwork-based challenges, dancing, music, and shared laughter, we had the opportunity to connect in meaningful and memorable ways. The day also offered us a chance to pause and reflect on how much we have to be grateful for in our lives. As we prepare to enter Year 12, this time of reflection helped us appreciate not only our personal journeys but also the support systems around us. Overall, it was a powerful and uplifting experience — one that left a lasting impression on every Year 11 student. It was a day full of gratitude, connection, and joy that we will carry with us into our final year of school. Thanks to Year 11 student George for taking all the photos! #reflectiondayofjoy #gratitude #CSPD

Service and Compassion at the Vinnies Van A meaningful evening of service as the Vinnies Van took to the streets last Tuesday evening. Gilroy Catholic College Year 10 students Jasmine and Evita, accompanied by Mrs Andrews, Mrs O’Connor, and Mr Finucane, joined the Vinnies Van outreach at Merrylands. The Vinnies Van initiative provides more than just food and essentials — it offers warmth, dignity, and human connection to those experiencing or at risk of homelessness. Alongside meals, snacks, toiletries, and hot beverages, volunteers offer conversation, compassion, and referrals to further support services. Jasmine and Evita shared their reflections on the experience: "Our experience of the Vinnies Van was really meaningful and rewarding. We were so happy to have the opportunity to help people who are struggling by giving out food and drinks and having a friendly chat with them. It was really eye-opening seeing how such a small act of kindness could make someone’s day. But overall, it was a really great experience and reminded us how important it is to care for others in our community." Their words are a powerful reminder of the impact we can have when we reach out to others with kindness. #vinnies #vinniesvan #cspd

World triathlon championship 2025: Para-triathlon a break from study for Matt Engesser

It’s an unorthodox way to prepare for your first world triathlon tilt - staying tucked away in a room with only study material for company - but that’s where Matt Engesser will be most of the time this week. The schoolboy has been juggling studying, doing exams and training for the para triathlon race at the world triathlon championships in Wollongong on Saturday in one of the biggest weeks of his life.
