🌟 Careers Expo 2025 – Inspiring Futures! 🌟 Last week, our senior students had the fantastic opportunity to attend the Western Sydney Careers Expo at Sydney Olympic Park, Homebush. With over 150 exhibitors from universities, TAFE NSW, private colleges, apprenticeship providers, and industry experts, our students explored a wide range of career pathways and post-school options. They also attended seminars on HSC subject choices, ATAR planning, university applications, and study strategies. It was a valuable day filled with inspiration, information, and future-focused conversations. A big thank you to the organisers for hosting such an informative and engaging event! 👏 We’re so proud of our students for making the most of the day and taking the next steps toward their goals. #StJohnPaulIICatholicCollege #Careers #Goals #Inspiration

🎶 Year 10 Elective Music students have been getting creative with their guitars! 🎸 As part of the unit, Art Music of the 20th & 21st Century, they explored the innovative world of 20th-century composer John Cage by creating ‘Prepared Instruments’, where they modified some of our acoustic guitars using everyday materials to change their sound. This hands-on activity gave them a unique insight into experimental sounds and extended instrument techniques.

Year 9 students had an enriching Reflection Day last week with the Youth Mission Team, focused on the powerful theme of Dignity. Through engaging skits, testimonies, and small group discussions, students explored what it means to embrace their true selves and recognising the dignity they hold simply by being created in God’s image. Inspired by St John Paul II’s message that each person is unique, unrepeatable, and deeply loved. Students were encouraged to rise above labels and reflect on the dignity they hold, and the importance of honouring that in others. #StJohnPaulIICatholicCollege #Mission #Dignity #ReflectionDay #Year9
