During Year 6’s Sport and Performing Arts session with Mrs. Kelly-Hosking and Mrs. Atkinson, we were very lucky to have Matthew’s Yaiya (grandmother in Greek), mother and older brother teach us the famous Greek dance the Zorba. This is a traditional dance the Greeks use to express happy emotions.
Although quite challenging in parts, Year 6 concentrated and listened carefully to the instruction and music to succeed in the end in learning the dance. We also practiced the Zeibekiko which has the famous words, “OPA” being chanted throughout. This was one of our favourite moments, chanting OPA to everyone. There is no specific meaning to this word, but it symbolises happiness, joy and celebration.
Overall, a massive thank you goes to our visitors for their efforts in sharing some cultural dances from Greece with us. We all had a wonderful time, even the teachers!

π¨β¨ Year 4 Painting Inspiration! β¨π¨ This week, Year 4 explored the incredible digital artwork of Lynette Wallworth, whose creations respond to movement and invite audiences to become part of the experience. πΏπ‘ Inspired by her work, our students created their own paintings β and believe it or notβ¦ they can react to movement too! πβ¨ If you use your imagination, you might notice colours shifting, shapes coming alive, or patterns dancing as you move past them. Through this activity, students explored creativity, perspective and the power of interaction in art. We love seeing their ideas come to life on canvas! π¨π« #cspd2026 #catholicschoolsparramattadiocese #parracatholic #westernsydney #CTKCommunity #ChristTheKing #CTKNorthRocks #CTKLearning #Year4Art #CreativeThinking #InteractiveArt

π₯β¨ Year 3 and 4 Shrove Tuesday Celebration! β¨π₯ Today, Year 4 marked Shrove Tuesday by learning about its meaning in the Church calendar and preparing our hearts for the season of Lent. Students explored why this day is traditionally a time for reflection, forgiveness and making good choices before Ash Wednesday. βοΈπ We discussed how Lent is a time for prayer, fasting and helping others, and how we can grow closer to God through our actions. Of course, we also enjoyed the tradition of pancakes β a reminder of using up rich ingredients before the simpler season of Lent begins! π₯ It was a meaningful and joyful way for Year 4 to connect faith, learning and community. π #cspd2026 #catholicschoolsparramattadiocese #parracatholic #westernsydney #CTKCommunity #ChristTheKing #CTKNorthRocks #CTKLearning
