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?

💚💛 The Sound of St. Patrick’s is Back! 💛💚 There’s something special about the sound of a playground filled with laughter, chatter and the excitement of friends seeing each other again! After the quiet of the holidays, St. Patrick’s energy returned quickly on Tuesday. From happy reunions to friends greeting each other like they hadn’t seen each other in years, our playground was full of life again! 😊 We’re already a week into Term 4, and it's a wonderful reminder that the people make our school such a special place to belong. Welcome back, everyone! Here's to a fantastic final term of learning, friendship and making memories together. 💚💛 #WelcomeBack #Term4 #StPatricksParramatta #Belonging #learningisfunatstpats #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #cspd

🕰️💚 Way Back When Wednesday 💛🕰️ Is it time to dive back into the St Patrick’s archives... but can you guess the year? 📸 Here are a few clues: 🎬 Ghostbusters had us asking, “Who you gonna call?” 🎶 Wham! had everyone singing along to Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go 🇦🇺 Bob Hawke was Prime Minister 🏉 The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs were celebrating premiership success 💻 Computers were getting into more homes... although they looked VERY different from the ones we use today! Meanwhile, at St Patrick’s, another generation of students was busy learning, laughing and making memories. Can you guess the year? And, even better, do you recognise anyone in these photos? Share your memories with us in the comments! 💚💛 #WayBackWhenWednesday #GuessTheYear #StPatricksParramatta #SchoolMemories #OurHistory #100YearsOfCatholicEducation

⚽🏆 The Final Whistle! 🏆⚽ What an incredible Primary World Cup Soccer tournament it has been! Over the past weeks, Australia, England, Spain, Brazil, Portugal and France have battled it out on the field, bringing energy, determination, teamwork and plenty of excitement to every game. From Australia holding strong at the top, to England’s late charge, Spain’s skill and teamwork, and Brazil, Portugal and France continuing to improve and challenge throughout the competition, every team had something to celebrate. But the final results are only one part of the story. The real win has been watching our students play together, develop their skills, encourage one another and demonstrate fairness, perseverance and respect. Congratulations to every player who took to the field and helped make our Primary World Cup such a memorable event. ⚽💚💛 And a huge thank you to Mrs Cadman for bringing the World Cup to life for our students! #BelongToSomethingGreater #cspd2026 #100yearsofcatholiceducation #learningisfunatstpatsparramatta #catholicschools #learningisfunatStPats #cspd #PrimaryWorldCup #SoccerAtStPats #Teamwork #Sportsmanship #StPatricksParramatta #LearningIsFunAtStPats

🎭✝️ 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 #learningisfunatStPats

🕰️💚 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
