Tri-skills is a very important element of the Key Learning Area of PDHPE (Personal Development, Health, Physical Education) and also a great way to build their gymnastic skills.
Year Six love participating in the lessons and developing their muscle tone and core strength. What activities do you do to strengthen your core muscles?

🎭✝️ Faith Comes to Life ✝️🎭 Our Year 5 and 6 students had the wonderful opportunity to experience 'Be the Witness', a contemporary Gospel musical bringing the story of Jesus to life through the eyes of St Peter. Through music, drama and storytelling, students experienced the Gospel in a completely different way, exploring Peter’s journey of faith, courage, doubt, forgiveness and discipleship. What a wonderful opportunity to experience the beauty of live theatre while deepening our understanding of our Catholic faith. Sometimes a story we know so well can take on new meaning when we experience it in a new way. 💙💛 #BeTheWitness #FaithInAction #CatholicFaith #Stage3 #StPatricksParramatta #CatholicSchools #BelongToSomethingGreater #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #cspd #learningisfunatStPats25 Sep 2026

🕰️💚 Way Back When Wednesday 💛🕰️ Different faces. Different classrooms. Different ways of teaching. The same purpose. For generations, St Patrick’s staff have been united by a passion for learning and a belief that every child deserves the opportunity to thrive. Teaching continues to change and evolve, but our commitment to moving student learning forward has always been, and will always be, at the heart of what we do. Here’s to all those who have taught, supported and inspired generations of St Patrick’s students, and to those who continue that story today. 💚💛 Who do you recognise? We’d love to hear your memories. #WayBackWhenWednesday #StPatricksParramatta #OurStory #TeachingAndLearning #CatholicEducation #100YearsOfCatholicEducation

🎭🎶 A Night to Shine! 🎶🎭 What an incredible celebration of the Performing Arts at St Patrick’s! On Thursday evening, our students took to the stage to share their gifts with our community. Ms Gaudry and our talented choir filled the space with music, while individual students showcased an extraordinary range of talents through singing, piano, violin, drama and dance. 🎹🎻💃🎤 There is something very special about watching young people find the confidence to step onto a stage and share something they love. Our students were simply fantastic, and we could not have been prouder of them! A very special thank you to Ms Gaudry for the time, energy, and passion she put into organising such a wonderful evening and giving our students the opportunity to shine. The curtain may have closed on this year’s Showcase, but we’re already looking forward to next year! 🌟💚💛 #PerformingArtsShowcase #LetYourLightShine #Music #Drama #Dance #StPatricksParramatta #LearningIsFunAtStPats #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #cspd #learningisfunatStPats

🌟🎸 One Stage. So Many Talents! 🎸🌟 Our Stage 3 students continued the entertainment at St Patrick’s You’ve Got Talent, stepping forward to share their gifts, including some fantastic guitar playing! 🎶 It takes courage to stand in front of your peers and share something you have practised and worked hard to develop, and we were incredibly proud of every student who took to the stage. Our Talent Show was also a chance to reflect on how fortunate we are to have opportunities to discover, develop and share our gifts. Not every child has access to the same opportunities, resources, or experiences, which makes it even more important to appreciate our gifts and look for ways to use them for good. Congratulations again to our wonderful MacKillop students and Ms Arida for bringing everyone together for such a joyful celebration of talent. 💚💛 #StPatricksYouveGotTalent #Stage3 #CelebratingOurGifts #Gratitude #StPatricksParramatta #CatholicSchools #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #learningisfunatStPats #cspd #catholicschools

🎭✨ The Talent Continues! ✨🎭 Stage 2 certainly brought plenty of variety to St Patrick’s You’ve Got Talent! From the beautiful sounds of the piano and violin to Irish dancing, magic and even a few comedy sketches, our students shared an amazing range of talents with their peers. 🎻🪄☘️😂 Behind every performance were hours of practising, learning, persistence and the courage to stand in front of an audience and have a go. Another huge shout-out to our MacKillop students, who, with the guidance of Ms Arida, worked behind the scenes to organise and bring our Talent Show to life. What a wonderful celebration of the many gifts within our St Patrick’s community! 💙💛 #StPatricksYouveGotTalent #Stage2 #CelebratingOurGifts #StPatricksParramatta #LearningIsFunAtStPats #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #cspd

🌟🎤 St Patrick’s You’ve Got Talent! 🎤🌟 Last Monday, our Kindergarten, Years 1 and 2 students proved that talent comes in MANY different forms! We saw singing, dancing, and even some impressive Rubik’s Cube solving as students bravely stepped up to share something they love and a talent they have worked hard to develop. 🎶💃🧩 What we loved most was seeing students celebrating and encouraging one another. Every talent was different, but every performer had their moment to shine! A huge congratulations to our performers and to our MacKillop students, who did a wonderful job organising the Talent Show under the guidance of Ms Arida. 💚💛 #StPatricksYouveGotTalent #LetYourLightShine #Stage1 #StPatricksParramatta #LearningIsFunAtStPats

💛💚 A Safety Update about Sharing Student Images Online 💛💚 You may have noticed that the way we share photos and videos of our students is beginning to look a bit different. Following recent guidance from the eSafety Commissioner, we are taking a more considered approach to selecting and sharing student photos and videos across our social media channels.💛💚 #esafetycommissioner #BelongToSomethingGreater #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #cspd #learningisfunatStPats

🕰️💚 Way Back When Wednesday 💛🕰️ The faces may change, the hairstyles certainly change, and fashions definitely come and go... but some things at St Patrick’s remain constant! 😊 Across the generations, our staff have shared the same commitment to helping every child learn, grow and become the best they can be. These photos capture some of the many people who have brought their knowledge, passion and heart to St Patrick’s over the years. Each has played a part in our school's story and in the lives of the students they taught. Recognise a familiar face? Tag them or share a memory of a St Patrick’s staff member who made a difference to you. 💚💛 #WayBackWhenWednesday #StPatricksParramatta #OurStory #TeachingAndLearning #SchoolMemories #100yearsofcatholiceducation #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #learningisfunatStPats #cspd

🎯🔢 BINGO... Maths Style! 🔢🎯 Who said fractions and decimals couldn’t be fun? Year 4 put their mathematical thinking to the test with a game of Fraction and Decimal Bingo! As they played, students made connections, applied their knowledge, and built confidence with fractions and decimals. A little friendly competition, plenty of mathematical thinking and a fun way to practise important skills. BINGO! 🙌 #Year4 #MathsIsFun #FractionsAndDecimals #LearningThroughPlay #StPatricksParramatta #LearningIsFunAtStPats #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #cspd #learningisfunatStPats
