~2025 BISHOP OF PARRAMATTA AWARD~ It is with great pride that we congratulate Year 12 student, Jasmine Jardin on receiving the Bishop of Parramatta Award for Student Excellence. This award acknowledges the contribution of one Year 12 student from each Catholic secondary school towards their school and local community, as well as their religious and academic achievements throughout the year. Jasmine exemplifies an authentic, faith-filled witness of Christ’s love through her leadership and service. A passionate advocate for social justice, she has worked tirelessly for the marginalised, most notably through her involvement in the Philippines immersion. As a student catechist at Dural Public School, Jasmine nurtures the faith of young students, embodying compassion and dedication. A strong academic achiever and accomplished public speaker, she inspires her peers both in and beyond the classroom. Additionally, as a member of the St. Madeleine Sophie Barat Lifted Sports Team, she demonstrates teamwork and a spirit of service. With her leadership skills as College Captain, Jasmine puts her faith in action, and as such is an exemplary candidate for this award.

During our FIAT lunch meetings, we’ve had the privilege of welcoming Rabab, a refugee from Syria who Marian is helping to sponsor through the Catholic Care CRISP program. With the support of Ms Abi Chemouni and Ms Safar, who assist with translation, Rabab has been able to share her experiences and reflections with us. She has spoken about the peace and love she has felt since arriving in Australia—feelings that have been absent for a long time. At the same time, she shared the challenge of finding happiness while still carrying sadness and worry for her family. One of her most powerful messages was the importance of not judging others by their appearance or words, as there is always a bigger story behind each person. Rabab has expressed her gratitude to the students for their welcome, saying that even a simple smile makes her feel at home. 🙂 #FIATatMarian #BeConnected #BeMarian

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY God our Father, we give you thanks and praise for fathers young and old. We pray for young fathers, newly embracing their vocation; may they find courage and perseverance to balance work, family and faith in joy and sacrifice. We pray for our own fathers around the world whose children are lost or suffering; may they know that the God of compassion walks with them in their sorrow. We pray for men who are not fathers but still mentor and guide us with fatherly love and advice. We remember fathers, grandfathers and great grandfathers who are no longer with us but who live forever in our memory and nourish us with their love. Amen

Today, Marian proudly joined thousands of schools and businesses across Australia in supporting Jersey Day, helping to raise awareness for the life-changing gift of organ donation. 💛 To mark the day, the final Blake Tickell Cup match saw staff take on Year 12 in a spirited game of Pickleball, while students also brought their energy and teamwork to a round of Capture the Flag. The atmosphere was filled with fun, competition, and community spirit. Most importantly, Jersey Day reminds us to start the conversation with our family and friends about organ donation—a simple discussion that can save lives. Thank you to everyone who wore their jerseys and showed their support for this vital cause. Jersey Day #JerseyDayAU #DonateLife

At our Year 9 Father’s Day Mass this week, Fr Giovani reminded us of the gift of fatherhood and the deeper truth that we are all children of God in faith. He spoke of fathers as loving and caring, offering wisdom and strength, and as instruments of God’s love in the world. Love, he said, is the true beginning of life, and all our love and gratitude ultimately point back to God. This Sunday, we give thanks for our fathers and father figures, grateful for their love, guidance, and the example they set in our lives.
