St Mary's Catholic Primary School is a nurturing community school, in the heart of Manly.

Yesterday, our school community gathered for a bea Yesterday, our school community gathered for a beautiful Family Mass, thoughtfully led by Father Chima. A special thank you to our Year 3 and Year 4 students for hosting both the Mass and the wonderful BBQ that followed! ✨

The message of the day centred on making room for God in our daily lives. Father Chima shared that just like packing your school bag, we should always make time for God in our day. Developing that relationship is all about talking to Him openly, just like chatting with family and friends. 🙏

A highlight of the Mass was welcoming back past students Mia to sing, Tilly D for her assistance with the presentation, and current students Ella and Annie for playing beautifully in the band. 🎤

Thank you to everyone who attended and contributed to such a meaningful and uplifting celebration. 💛 #stmarysmanly

🏅 Our students were thrilled to welcome Olympian J 🏅 Our students were thrilled to welcome Olympian Jeremy Rolleston this week! Representing Australia in bobsleigh, Jeremy shared his incredible journey from rugby to the ice, transitioning into a completely new sport at an elite level.

He spoke about the power of resilience, embracing change, and the courage to step outside your comfort zone in pursuit of new goals. Students were captivated by Jeremy’s story of overcoming challenges, and pushing boundaries to reach Olympic competition, and how those same lessons can help them thrive in everyday life, whether at school, in sport, or beyond.

A huge thank you to Jeremy for inspiring our students to dream big, stay adaptable, and chase every opportunity! 🌟 #stmarysmanly #OlympicsUnleashed @ausolympicteam
