The College Founder's Day Mass was once again a special day for St Edward's. The students were reverent, respectful and prayerful throughout the ceremony. Mass was presided over by Father Moloney the Parish Priest of The Entrance. Congratulations must go to all our brilliant musicians who performed at Mass.  Students in the band were thoroughly prepared by Mrs Rankin, Mrs Emmett and Mr Toole. Their performances added so much to the prayerful atmosphere of the mass. The tradition of recognising long serving staff continue at the conclusion of Mass. Fifteen staff received awards form Mr Bonnici for their long years of service to the College. A big thank you to all who contributed to this wonderful community celebration.

On Thursday May 5, Year 7 gathered with many of their family members to celebrate Mother’s Day. Each Core class presented an item that captured the importance of motherhood. It was a wonderful occasion that was followed by a beautiful morning tea. Many thanks to all who assisted in preparing for this gathering and for the boys who performed so admirably on the day. We wish all mothers a happy mother's day. Mr Beacroft Director of Mission     [smallgallery fooid="36959"]   [embed]https://youtu.be/ZNB-QOnyTkQ[/embed]   [embed]https://youtu.be/wy1vdgIbnoY[/embed]

The tradition of sharing our Holy Week celebration with St Joseph’s College to remember the significance of Easter continued this year. Once again, the ERC was packed with students, and staff from both Colleges. This was a solemn ceremony of prayer, song, and drama. The Passion of Christ is followed by witnessing the Stations of the Cross. Our Year 10 and 12 students were outstanding in presenting the final days of Jesus. The musicians on the day, under the guidance of the music staffs from both Colleges produced brilliant performances and created a great atmosphere in the hall. Congratulations to all the students who prepared so thoroughly for this wonderful community event. A final thank you to all who contributed to the most important liturgical event on the Christian calendar.

Between 23 and 25 March, Year 9 spent two nights and three days on camp at Wee Jasper, just outside Yass. The area is notable for its river systems and the many caving opportunities which was the focus of the camp experience. I was so impressed with the behaviour, resilience, determination, commitment, and comradeship the students displayed during the activities and in their relationships with their peers. The activities varied greatly but drew out the adventurous nature of the students. The camp was well organised and ran very smoothly due to the professionalism and commitment of all  Australian Outdoor Education staff and of course the St Edward’s College staff who came along and supported Year 9 in their activity groups. In speaking with the boys over the last couple of days and in feedback from parents, one can only say that the experience at Wee Jasper was a tremendous success and enjoyed by many.

Nearly 200 Year 6 boys from across the coast were welcomed by the College attending a 'Day in the Life' where they experienced hands on learning activities. The boys had the opportunity to engage in Science, Music, French, Art, Woodwork and PDHPE. The Leaders of Learning who led each of the activities, were supported by our aspiring student leaders from Year 10. A great day was had by all. Testimonial: The students of St Patrick’s had a fantastic day. The teachers were fantastic. I would also like to personally thank the Year 10 boys who led our students around for the day. They were awesome, respectful and energetic. Such wonderful examples of outstanding students at St Edward’s. They engaged so well with the boys ensuring a calm and relaxed day. - Lee Sullivan, St Patrick's Teacher.   Holy Cross Catholic Primary School [smallgallery fooid="35803"]   Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic School, The Entrance and St John Fisher Catholic School [smallgallery fooid="35858"]   Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic School, Wyoming and St John the Baptist Catholic School [smallgallery fooid="36004"]   Our Lady Star of the Sea Catholic Primary School [smallgallery fooid="35921"]   St Patrick's Catholic School [smallgallery fooid="36064"]   Other Schools [smallgallery fooid="36101"]
