This week, the Sistahood Mentoring Program was filled with heartwarming moments of self-care and giving back. Our students were treated to Wellness Hamper Packs, designed to nurture their well-being, and enjoyed a fun round of Self-Care Bingo.

A special thank you to for their soothing teas and for their incredible skincare products, which added a calming touch to the experience.
The highlight of the week was the working bee, where our students came together to create thoughtful hampers and hand-crafted bookmarks for the residents of Thompson Aged Care Facility. It was a beautiful way to foster both self-love and community spirit, showing how the power of kindness and care can truly make a difference.

Last week was an inspiring celebration of our students' creative talents! The week started off with ‘Art Smart’, a dynamic four-day workshop where some of our gifted and high-potential students immersed themselves in a variety of artmaking activities. These activities pushed them to think outside the box, encouraging creativity and spontaneity.
The week then concluded with the annual Fisher’s Ghost Art Award and exhibition, held at Campbelltown Arts Centre, a highly anticipated community event. We are incredibly proud to announce that some of our students were selected as finalists in the Secondary School category. A special congratulations to Sasha S. of Year 11, who won an Award for her beautiful still-life oil painting, ‘Fruits and a Jar’.
Overall a big well-done to Mya C, Tanisha G, Jiya S, Chloe A, Matthew M, Rashi K, April M, Ayesha K, Kiarah B, Sasha S, Ruby H, Ethan K, Maria A, Anayah K and Amiee N, for their dedication, talent, and achievements!

Last week, the Wellbeing Team launched the Sistahood Mentoring Program for our female Aboriginal students, and it was an inspiring start! We were thrilled to have TRAXSIDE Youth Service and Elizabeth Macarthur High School join us to support the program. They demonstrated traditional weaving techniques and helped the students create beautiful bookmarks for the local nursing home.
It was heartwarming to see the community come together, fostering creativity and collaboration. The atmosphere was filled with joy and purpose as everyone contributed to something meaningful.

Last week, our U16s boys and girls took to the field against Picton High School for the inaugural NAIDOC Cup! This event was about much more than just the game—it was a celebration of the history, culture, and achievements of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples. We were honored to begin the day with a powerful smoke ceremony, setting the tone for a day filled with respect and unity. The spirit of the game was alive and well, with exemplary performances from every player, showcasing their skills, sportsmanship, and pride in representing their schools. The atmosphere was electric, thanks to the incredible engagement from both schools spectators who came out to support the teams. Although Picton took home the win in both games this time, our students played their hearts out, and we couldn’t be prouder of their effort. This marks the beginning of a great annual tradition, and we’re already looking forward to next year’s showdown!

To start our NAIDOC celebrations this week OPHS welcomed Diramu Aboriginal Dance and Didgeridoo from Walangari Karntawarra. Through performances they shared their authentic cultural knowledge, helping students gain a better understanding of the relevance and beauty of our First Nations cultures.

Wow! Thank you to our amazing OPHS community for your extremely generous donations for our Blue Wren House fundraiser. Not only have we been able to donate hundreds of items but we also raised $213! A special mention to our Year 10 students who were the ones behind the scenes advocating for this wonderful cause 💙

On the 31st May, Oran Park's U18 students took on the challenge of competing against Robert Townson for the University Shield Trophy. The boys arrived to a warm welcome from Robert Townson, as students from both schools performed the Haka. It was an intense match, but Oran Park were too strong and came away with a win, becoming the University Shield champions for the MacArthur Region! Great work boys

What’s happening in CAPA❓

On the 5th of June, selected students from OPHS attended the Sydney West Oztag competition. Although students had an early start at 6:30am, they arrived at school and the venue with loads of enthusiasm. Students from each year group participated with great levels of sportsmanship, skill and teamwork as they progressed throughout the day. The boys Yr 9/10, 11/12 team and girls Yr 9/10 team all progressed through to the finals but were unfortunately defeated. The girls 7/8 team continued their valiant effort through the day and progressed through to the Grand Final where they were narrowly beaten. However, these girls will still progress to the champions of champions competition which will be held later this term Great job Oran Park
