Today was an unforgettable day at Gilroy Catholic College, as world-famous artist Johnny Romeo dropped by to share his vibrant journey as a pop artist! He spoke passionately about pop culture and how artists play a key role in sparking conversations about today’s global issues. Our Year 8 Visual Arts students were all ears during an inspiring Q&A, and to top it off, Sienna walked away with a signed, limited-edition print of Johnny's artwork! This is a reflection from a student who attended Johnny’s presentation: “Johnny Romeo shared a lot about his paintings and discussed the meaning behind some of his remarkable Pop Culture artworks. As Johnny Romeo shared his artworks, he explained how they influence, impact and play a part within our daily lives. Johnny Romeo took the time to answer a variety of questions from the students, giving them insightful and meaningful answers for them to take away with them. Overall, Johnny Romeo's art talk was inspiring, entertaining and enjoyable for all of the students, keeping them engaged and attentive throughout the presentation.” We thank Johnny for his inspiring presentation. #johnnyromeoart

Recently, Gilroy Catholic College was proud to welcome former student and leading Hills District real estate agent, Mr. Scott Dunger, along with his team from Manor Real Estate, to speak with students about careers in the real estate industry. Scott, Mark, and Anthony gave an insightful overview of a typical day in the life of a real estate agent, including the qualifications needed to get started as well as the pathways available for career progression. Dyanne also shared valuable knowledge about the critical roles within administration, such as executive assistance and office management. We are incredibly grateful to the Manor team for sharing their time, advice, and industry expertise. The key takeaway for our students? Real estate isn’t just about fancy suits and flashy cars, it’s about building genuine relationships, communicating effectively, and applying strong business skills to build a successful career!

Last Friday, Gilroy Catholic College was bursting with house spirit as we held our annual Athletics Carnival! The atmosphere was electric, with cheers echoing across the grounds in a spectacular show of support, energy, and community spirit. A massive thank you to our incredible staff, student leaders and student volunteers whose dedication made the day such a success — your efforts didn’t go unnoticed! Record-Breaking Highlights A special congratulations to Year 11 student Caitlyn, who made Gilroy history by breaking two long-standing school records: Long Jump (16s Girls): Surpassing the 2003 record of 5.06m with a new distance of 5.10m. High Jump: Caitlyn broke the 1995 record of 1.48m — not once, but three times — finishing with an outstanding 1.54m, a full 6cm above the 30-year-old benchmark! Your determination and talent are inspiring, Caitlyn — your name is now firmly etched in Gilroy's athletic history! This week and over the school holidays, we’ll be sharing snapshots from the day capturing the fun, sportsmanship, and community spirit that made it unforgettable. Stay tuned!

Last week, our students were getting hands-on (and flour-covered!) in the Make It Bake It Challenge to celebrate National Archaeology Week! The challenge? Recreate an archaeological artifact or site using edible materials, a creative (and tasty) way to explore our ancient past! From Marie Antoinette to the Egyptian pyramids, students are connecting with history in a fun, unique and meaningful way. Because archaeology isn’t just about digging, it’s about curiosity, creativity, and understanding the stories that shaped our world. This challenge helps students engage with history beyond the textbook, encouraging research, innovation, and a whole lot of teamwork. We especially enjoyed taste-testing our delicious creations! Congratulations to Jack (Year 11) and Claudia (Year 12), who were the respective winners in our senior cohorts. #NationalArchaeologyWeek #MakeItBakeIt #HistoryYouCanEat #StudentCreativity #EdibleArchaeology
