Today we welcomed St Finbarโs and St Matthewโs for the third year of the Simmons Collective Challenge! Stage 2 and 3 students from all schools participated in three exciting and engaging challenges throughout the day. First, students worked in teams to build the tallest tower they could using only marshmallows and pasta. Next, they tackled a series of challenging quiz questions that tested their teamwork and critical thinking skills. Finally, they used Indi cars to navigate creative pathways based on challenge cards โ a fun and tech-inspired way to wrap up the day! All students showed fantastic resilience, collaboration, and school spirit. Congratulations to St Finbarโs, who were the overall winners this year!

As we continue through the Year of Hope, this message encourages us to embrace compassion and connection in all our relationships. We wish all our fathers and father figures a very happy Fatherโs Day this Sunday. May your day be filled with love, appreciation, and joy.
