Galilee recently welcomed 17 new students for their transition visits for our Mid-Year Reception intake.
Last Friday, Galilee hosted the signing of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) extension between the Catholic Education South Australia (CESA) and the Indonesian Embassy in Canberra.
This year's M.A.D. Night was a spectacular success, marking a significant milestone in Cardijn College's 40-year of dedication to the Arts. Held over two evenings at the Hopgood Theatre, M.A.D. Night showcased the immense talent and creativity of our students in music, art, and drama.
Earlier this week Galilee celebrated the Feast of St Marcellin Champagnat in our Middle School. We started the day with a mass celebrated by Fr Josy.
During Reconciliation Week at Cardijn, we had the privilege of hosting Uncle Robert Taylor who conducted a meaningful Welcome to Country ceremony.
Last week during Thrive, the founder of Social Kung Fu, Matt Purcell presented to our Year 8 Marian students.
This week we are celebrating the excellent teaching and learning that happens in Catholic schools every day. Running from May 13-19, Catholic Education Week recognises the many amazing reasons that students, staff and families love Catholic schools and what makes these communities so special.
On Wednesday morning, the Hon. Amanda Rishworth MP, Federal Member for Kingston and Minister for Social Services, visited Galilee for Community Prayer. During the event, the Year 1 students led the community in a special Mother's Day prayer to express gratitude for the special women in our lives.
Both students and staff from Marian and Marcellin gathered on Wednesday to pay tribute to the ANZACS and all Australian Defence Force (ADF) personnel. Both events were hosted by the Cardijn College Army Cadet Unit, one at each campus. The presence of a special guest graced the Marian service: David McCarthy, a retired Royal Marine Commando, who delivered a solemn and respectful ode.
What a vibrance of colour from Galilee's Sports Day last Friday!
A big shoutout to Marigold for their outstanding sportsmanship, taking home the Spirit Cup this year. Wattle clinched the overall win of the Sports Day Shield and came first in the Whole School Relay Sprint.
