Daniel's fun and interactive presentation provided practical ways to reduce unkindness and bullying behaviors, strategies for building resilience and what bystanders can do to stop bullying.

This morning Gilroy Catholic College came together for a beautiful reflection on hope and how it connects these three important moments—Easter, ANZAC Day, and the life of Pope Francis. Each of these themes offers a unique perspective on hope: Easter brings the ultimate hope, through the sacrifice and resurrection of Jesus, a promise of eternal life and redemption. ANZAC Day highlights the hope for freedom and peace, acknowledging the sacrifices made for the safety and well-being of future generations. Pope Francis embodied hope in action by giving of himself, advocating for the marginalized, and showing that through care and service, hope can be found in even the most difficult situations. It's a powerful reminder of how hope can inspire us to live lives of compassion, courage, and service, just as these figures and events have demonstrated. “Everyone knows what it is to hope. In the heart of each person, hope dwells as the desire and expectation of good things to come.” Pope Francis.

Year 7 Take on Taronga! Our Year 7 science students from Gilroy Catholic College had an unforgettable day at Taronga Zoo! They explored how living things adapt to their environments and learned about the threats many species face in the wild. Highlights included the Seal Show, where clever tricks showed off some serious survival skills, and the Bird Show, where a hawk wowed the crowd by cracking open an emu egg—an awesome example of behavioural adaptation! A day full of learning, laughter, and a deeper appreciation for the natural world! #GilroyScience #TarongaZoo #Year7Adventures #LearningOutsideTheClassroom #AdaptationsInAction
