Grade 10 Retreat at The Wilds

Our Grade 10 learners enjoyed a lovely morning outdoors at The Wilds, taking time to pause, reflect and reconnect with themselves and one another. Surrounded by nature, they participated in meaningful discussions about their personal journeys, the challenges they face and the paths they hope to follow.

The retreat provided a valuable opportunity for reflection, sharing and growth, reminding our learners of the importance of faith, friendship and supporting one another along life’s journey.
It was a beautiful morning of fellowship and reflection, allowing our Grade 10s to step away from their busy school routines and appreciate the journey they are on together.

A Special Visit to the Carmelite Sisters in Benoni 🙏

Our First Holy Communion learners recently enjoyed a very special visit to the Carmelite Sisters in Benoni, where they had the opportunity to learn how the hosts used during Holy Mass are made.

The learners were welcomed into a beautiful, quiet and serene environment, where peace and prayer are at the heart of daily life. They discovered how the hosts are carefully prepared with great dedication, love and reverence, knowing that they will become part of one of the most sacred moments in the Catholic faith — the celebration of the Eucharist.

Our learners were curious and enthusiastic, asking many thoughtful questions as they learnt more about the process and the important role the hosts play in the Mass. The visit provided a wonderful opportunity to deepen their understanding of the Eucharist as they prepare to receive their First Holy Communion.

It was a meaningful and memorable morning, reminding us that even the smallest things can hold great significance when prepared with faith, care and love.

We thank the Carmelite Sisters for welcoming our learners and sharing their beautiful ministry with us. ❤️

🌱 Growing Together: Our Spring Garden Project! 🍅

Happy Spring from our little gardeners at Holy Family College!
To celebrate the arrival of spring, our learners rolled up their sleeves and got their hands dirty with our exciting Spring Garden Project!

Before planting, the children enjoyed a discussion about what plants need to grow and thrive, including seeds, healthy soil, sunshine and water. ☀️💧 They then put their knowledge into practice by planting their very own vegetable garden, featuring tomatoes, beetroot and green peppers.

The excitement does not stop there! Our young gardeners will take turns watering and caring for the garden each day, learning about responsibility, patience and the importance of nurturing living things.

We look forward to watching our little garden flourish and seeing the fruits (and vegetables!) of their hard work. This wonderful hands-on experience teaches our learners to appreciate nature and care for God’s beautiful creation.

A little seed today, a big harvest tomorrow! 🌿✨

Grade 2 Maths: Building 3D Shapes! 🔺🍬

Learning Mathematics is so much fun when you can build, create and explore!

Today, our Grade 2 learners got hands-on with 3D shapes using Jelly Tots and toothpicks. With plenty of creativity and excitement, they connected the toothpicks to form the edges of different shapes, using the Jelly Tots to join the corners together.
This fun activity helped learners develop their understanding of three-dimensional shapes, including their faces, edges and vertices, while encouraging problem-solving, fine motor skills and creative thinking.

Who knew Mathematics could be so sweet? Our Grade 2 learners certainly enjoyed bringing their learning to life, one Jelly Tot at a time! 🌈✨

Grade 3 Maths: Learning Through Play! 🔢🎯

Our Grade 3 learners have been putting their mathematical skills to the test using the exciting online game Hit the Button!

This fun and interactive game allows learners to practise their number bonds, addition, subtraction, multiplication and division while improving their speed and accuracy. By combining learning with play, the learners are encouraged to think quickly, build confidence and strengthen their mental maths skills.

The activity brings excitement into the classroom and shows that Mathematics can be both educational and enjoyable!

At Holy Family College, we encourage our learners to embrace technology as a valuable learning tool while developing the skills they need for future success. Well done, Grade 3s! 🌟
