Principal’s Message

Welcome to our last Serviam Newsletter for 2025.

Our students and teachers came together to celebrate the last day of school on Friday with a Christmas Liturgy, followed by a joyful Christmas Concert, and then a picnic filled with laughter, food trucks, inflatables, and fun on the playground. It was truly a day of prayer, song, dance, and community spirit.

In my final address, I encouraged the girls to pause and reflect on the profound gift of Christ’s birth. Christmas is not about the busyness or gift-buying, but a season of joy, hope, and renewal—a time to celebrate God’s love made visible in the child Jesus.

I am deeply proud of this community. This year has been filled with learning, growth, challenges, and triumphs. Our students have shown resilience, creativity, and kindness, and I am inspired by all they have achieved both inside and outside the classroom and their many acts of Serviam.

To our dedicated teachers and support staff—thank you for your unwavering commitment to nurturing and inspiring our students. To our families—your support and partnership have been invaluable in helping us build a strong, caring community.

Gospel Reflection

Gaudete Sunday, the Third Sunday of Advent, is a moment in the liturgical year when the Church pauses to rejoice. The word Gaudete means “Rejoice,” and the readings remind us that even in seasons of waiting, God’s presence brings renewal and hope. Isaiah speaks of deserts blooming, of the blind seeing and the lame leaping, of sorrow and sighs fleeing away. James encourages patience, urging us to wait with trust like farmers awaiting the harvest. In the Gospel, John the Baptist, imprisoned and uncertain, sends his disciples to ask Jesus if He is truly the Messiah. Jesus responds not with abstract words but with signs: the blind see, the lame walk, the poor hear good news. These are the unmistakable marks of God’s Kingdom breaking into the world.

This Sunday reminds us that joy is not naïve optimism but confidence in God’s faithful action. Advent is not passive waiting; it is active hope, noticing where God is already at work and preparing our hearts to welcome Christ more fully. In our own lives, we may share John’s questions and doubts, but Jesus’ answer is always the same: look at the signs of renewal, healing, and justice.

As families enter the Christmas holiday break, this message takes on a special meaning. Joy can be lived out in simple ways at home: sharing meals, laughter, and traditions that remind us of God’s presence. Patience becomes a gift when holidays feel busy or stressful, inviting us to slow down and extend grace to one another. Service can be a family practice, whether visiting relatives, helping neighbours, or supporting ministries that care for the vulnerable. Prayer anchors joy in faith, whether through lighting the Advent wreath, reading the Sunday Gospel together, or pausing before meals. Most importantly, Christ can be seen in one another, in everyday acts of kindness, forgiveness, and love.

Pope Leo’s recent visit to Lebanon has been a powerful reminder of the Church’s universal mission of reconciliation and hope. His presence among the Lebanese people, especially in Beirut and Baalbek, echoed Isaiah’s vision of deserts blooming and communities being renewed. By standing with a nation that has endured hardship, the Pope reminded us that Christ’s joy is strongest when shared in solidarity with those who suffer. For us, his visit is an invitation to deepen our own commitment to justice and peace. Just as Jesus pointed to signs of healing and good news, Pope Leo’s witness calls us to be signs of hope in our own families, schools, and parishes.

Gaudete Sunday calls us to rejoice because the Lord is near. As we move into the Christmas holiday break, may this joy be lived out in patience, service, and prayer, and may Pope Leo’s visit inspire us to see Christ’s presence in every act of solidarity and love.

I want to offer a personal note of thanks to our staff, students, and families. Your presence at liturgies, your support of community initiatives, and your willingness to walk together in faith have been a true witness to the Serviam spirit. Every small act of kindness and service has helped our community reflect the joy of Gaudete Sunday. The recent Thanksgiving Mass was a beautiful example of this spirit, gathering us together in gratitude for the year past and commissioning our leaders with hope for the future. It was a reminder that when we come together in prayer and thanksgiving, we embody the very signs of renewal that Jesus points to in the Gospel.

Archdiocesan RE Test Results

We have received the results of the Archdiocesan Religious Education Tests in Years 8 & 10, which were held in week 2 of term. We have received the results very late this year which Sydney Catholic Schools wishes to apologise for, but unfortunately this was not in their control.

We can report we are significantly above average in both years, as has been the great tradition at the College. Our College continues to be a leader in Religious Education in the System and a model of best practice. A full report will be in the newsletter.

In Year 10 we achieved 8 High Distinctions, 51 Distinctions, 90 Credits and 30 Participation certificates. We had 179 students sit the test with an average of 34.3/50, while the Archdiocese average was 32.5/50. Our highest score was 48/50.

In Year 8 we achieved 12 High Distinctions, 66 Distinctions, 79 Credits and 17 Participation certificates. We had 174 students sit the test with an average score of 36.2/50, while the Archdiocese average was 33.4/50. Our highest score was 47/50.

Sydney Catholic Schools wishes to apologise for the lateness of these results. They are working to ensure that students will receive via Compass their individual reports and an electronic copy of their certificates. Parents will receive a notification. The Compass team is working on this starting today and it will be completed over the next few days by Sydney Catholic Schools Head Office.

Congratulations to the following students who received High Distinctions.

Youth Ministry News

On Saturday 29 November, Mrs Nader along with 14 students and myself, travelled to Melbourne for the Australian Catholic Youth Festival (ACYF) where we joined thousands of young Catholics in worship, music, workshops and prayer. Highlights ranged from lively concerts to quiet moments of Eucharistic Adoration, with opportunities to engage with bishops and speakers. The experience fostered community, deepened faith and left participants motivated to live as “bearers of Christ’s light.”

Attending ACYF was an eye-opening experience, helping and encouraging young individuals to open up their hearts to God, and learn more about their faith. Through inspirational talks, workshops, masses and plenary sessions, we were able to learn our connection with God, and how our faith will guide us through different paths. The Australian Catholic Youth Festival also enabled us to grow friendships with others from different schools, who share similar mindsets and want to explore our faith further. Overall, the ACYF was an impactful 5-day experience, and I would highly encourage students to attend the next one in Sydney, 2028.

We hope you enjoy reading what some of our students had to say about their experience.

As 2025 draws to a close and we prepare our hearts to welcome Christ, Advent invites us to pause, pray and open ourselves to His presence. Amid the busyness of life, we are reminded that lasting joy is found in making space for the Lord. May this season of anticipation renew our faith and inspire us to share His light with the world.

Wishing you and your family a blessed Christmas and a joyful, prosperous New Year.

ACYF was truly an incredible experience and I came away from it with so much more than I ever expected. I learnt how powerful it can be to sing your heart out in worship, how deeply God can speak in the silence of adoration, and what it means to surrender everything to Him through confession.

We had the privilege of hearing so many inspiring voices from Fr Rob Galea to Sr Mary Grace, and even special messages from Pope Leo, Archbishop Fisher and Archbishop Comensoli. In one of the sessions called “How to love your friends (and your enemies)”, I was reminded that Jesus knew Judas would betray Him and still washed his feet, and that kind of love reminds me that no mistake can ever make God give up on us. This festival reminded me that there is so much hope in the young Church. I saw countless people stepping forward for confession, lifting their voices in worship and choosing to embrace their faith with joy.

To anyone reading this: God loves you and He desires to know you personally. He sees every flaw and mistake, yet His love for you remains constant and unfailing. You are loved by the God who created you intentionally; beautifully, uniquely, and perfectly as you are. Don’t wait to encounter Him because the time to draw close is now. Trust in him and the rest will follow.

My experience at the Australian Catholic Youth Festival in Melbourne 2025 genuinely gave me a sense of purpose. It helped me realise that my faith isn’t just something personal, it’s something I’m called to live out for others especially in my role as a Minister of Holy Communion within the College community. The festival also helped me build deeper relationships with the Christian community and opened my eyes to how welcoming, supportive and worshipful we are when we gather together. It showed me what it truly means to belong and to serve.

Isabella Saoud
Year 9

Overall, I had an amazing experience at ACYF of faith formation which I would do again in a heartbeat, from the speakers and workshops to the praise and worship songs and exhibitions. It was a truly remarkable experience which allowed me to develop my relationship with God. The plenary sessions taught me that God is loving and merciful and cares for all our needs constantly, all we need to do is pray and have faith. I also learnt that prayer is a fundamental part of our faith where God listens to us and the two essential factors of prayer are hearing God’s voice and letting God hear our voice which I learnt from Sister Mary Grace’s workshop.

Georgia Tsovolos
Year 10

This experience allowed me to look deeper into myself and my faith to further discover how God’s patience and grace persist in my life. There are often times when it is easy to forget how blessed we are, and this trip has helped me to gain a more positive outlook on my life and my faith, reminding me of God’s ever-present love. Spending so much time with like-minded young Christians has grown in me a sense of community, and I look forward to continuing in my journey of adoration and worship.

Newman Symposium

On Monday 24 November, St Ursula’s College held our annual Newman Symposium. The Newman Selective Gifted Education Program at the College offers students in Years 7-10 dynamic and inspiring learning environments that foster curiosity, creativity and critical thinking. As part of the program, students are provided with a range of enrichment and extension opportunities designed to challenge and engage young minds. These opportunities not only extend classroom learning but also encourage personal growth, leadership and a passion for lifelong learning.

The afternoon brought together students, parents and staff to celebrate the academic and personal growth of those students involved in the Newman Program. Students had a chance to showcase various projects and share their experiences, and they spoke confidently about the skills they had gained through extension opportunities at the College. The afternoon commenced with Musical performances followed by a display of student work and projects from all learning areas, including short films from practical models and interactive toys and complex mathematics problem solving.

Overall the Newman Symposium was a wonderful celebration of all the achievements of our students and a reminder of the exciting opportunities that lie ahead in the Newman Program. I would like to thank all of the teachers who have worked with our Gifted Education students this year, providing contextual extension and enrichment opportunities for our students to display at the Symposium.

2025 Music Showcase Evening

On Tuesday 3 December, St Ursula’s College community gathered for the annual 2025 Music Showcase, an uplifting celebration of the hard work, dedication, and musical achievement of our students. The vision and coordination from Sarah Olsen, our Amadeus Coordinator, Elective Music teacher and Senior Music teacher were central to the success of the program and the performances seen on stage.

The Amadeus Music Program has continued to flourish this year with enriching, high-quality musical opportunities, both inside and beyond the classroom.

The evening opened with performances from our Year 7 String Extension Groups.

Groups 2 and 4 presented a joyful “Jingle Bells.”
Groups 1 and 3 followed with a polished performance of “Bach and Beyond.”

These ensembles are part of the programs, ensuring students are supported from their earliest stages of musical development. For many, it was their first public performance—an important milestone nurtured through a structured and thoughtful program design.

The String Ensemble performed “Overture – Dieci al prezzo di uno,” followed by a touching vocal item, “Love Moves in Mysterious Ways” from Year 9 student Karylle Dagalea—one of many elective students mentored in the elective classroom.

One of the evening’s standout performances came from Gabriella Saliba, Joyce Wang, and Marion Choi, whose arrangement of “Stand Up” formed part of their Year 9 Elective Music assessment. Their performance demonstrated the depth of learning in elective program of American Spirituals and Gospel, showcasing creativity and confident performance across multiple instruments. Their use of harmonica, bass guitar, piano and vocals.

The Concert Band Extension groups, developed through the Amadeus Program, continued to highlight the their strengths:

The Year 7 Concert Band energised the audience with “Seven Nation Army.”
The Year 8 Concert Band delivered a dynamic performance of “High Hopes.”

This section also featured beautiful solo performances by two elective students has supported through classroom and program.

Jacinta Shori – “Funeral”

The Year 8 Extension Concert Band, run under Danielle Buiaroski, then performed Highlights from Willy Wonka, a nostalgic return to one of the College’s recent musical productions.

Our co-curricular ensembles have had an active year performing at assemblies, eisteddfods, Year 7 orientation, community events, and school celebrations.

At the showcase, the following groups performed:

St Ursula’s Orchestra performed “Christmas at the Movies,”
Extension Winds Ensemble presented “My Shot” from
Hamilton.

The professionalism, confidence, and musical cohesion displayed by these ensembles were well received.

Two exceptional solo performances highlighted the high standards of the elective program.

Marion Choi performed Debussy’s “Arabesque No. 1,” showcasing advanced technical control and expressive sensitivity.
Anabel McNamara (Year 11) impressed with a soulful, jazz-inspired performance of “At Last.” By Etta James

The night concluded with a vibrant performance of “September” by the College Stage Band, bringing the showcase to an exciting and joyful finish led by Mr Valente and Danielle Buiaroski.

Year 7 Spelling Bee: A Battle of Words and Wits!

The annual Year 7 Spelling Bee at St Ursula’s was nothing short of electrifying this year, with eight eager competitors stepping up to the challenge. What began with nervous energy in the practice round quickly transformed into a tense, edge-of-your-seat contest that kept the audience captivated until the very last word.

In the practice round, our eight students warmed up with words like Union, Diary, Canopy, and Autumn. Though nerves were high, spirits were even higher as each competitor found their rhythm.

The competition claimed its first exit in Round 1. In Round 2, words like Muscle, Pavlova, and Origami tested the group. The tension rose in Round 3 with tricky words such as Temptation, Insomnia, and Dissect. By the end of this round, three competitors were eliminated, leaving just three spellers standing. It was in Round 4 where the pressure mounted with the words Alpine, Granite, narrowing the field to two finalists.

The final showdown took place from Round 5 onwards. It was a head-to-head duel between 7.1 and 7.6. Both showed incredible composure, spelling words like Immune, Accident, Museum, and Chord flawlessly. The audience held their breath as the rounds stretched on, Round 7 saw Cruise and Require conquered with ease. In the decisive final round, 7.1 tackled Override while 7.6 faced the challenge of Pergola. With perfect spelling, Katerina Aoun (7.6) emerged as the St Ursula’s Year 7 Spelling Bee Champion, with 7.1 Amber Herlihen earning a well-deserved runner-up position.

Every participant should be proud of their performance, and the audience left inspired by the dedication of Year 7’s finest wordsmiths.

Congratulations to Katerina Aoun, our champion, and to all the competitors who made this year’s spelling bee such a thrilling success!

Spanish Telenovela

When we were assigned to create a telenovela, we did not think it was possible. Writing a storyline, designating roles and editing in Spanish sounded challenging. Inspired by the telenovela culture of Latin America, our telenovela ‘El carisma de Juan’, was a combination of comedy, deception and most importantly, romance.

The story tells the story of Griselda and Juan who got recently married but then suffer a car accident. Juan develops amnesia and Griselda does everything in her power to make Juan remember her, only for the therapist, Aracely to take advantage of his condition and make him fall in love with her. The truth is finally revealed thanks to the help of Refugio but Juan and Griselda’s reencounter is cut short by Gabriela’s revelation of causing the car accident. In the end, love prevails and the protagonists are able to live their everlasting love.

This telenovela was fun, exciting and had many laughable moments during production. It is definitely a once in a lifetime experience and were able to learn a lot relevant vocabulary, which will be highly useful as we start analysing one of Mexico’s most well-known telenovelas, Rubi. We invited our teachers to watch the premier of our telenovela and they loved it.

Together we rose to the occasion and were extremely proud of this masterpiece.

ZONTA Birthing Kit workshop

It is a known fact that in Nigeria, 512 mothers pass away every year per 100 000 live births as a result of hygiene complications. Furthermore, ⅕ women in Australia experience domestic violence at least once in their lives. These gross phenomena are ones ZONTA aims to mitigate.

On the Saturday morning of 6 December, our school’s Zonta club and several other volunteers gathered in Brescia to complete two main objectives: pack 600 birthing kits and 150 Share The Dignity handbags.

Share the dignity is an initiative ZONTA has partnered up with, providing individuals (usually women and children) who have suffered from domestic violence, sanitary items that improve their quality of life. Items can range from pads to tampons and even shampoo.

In domestic violence situations, a person may not have the financial facilities for hygiene and thus for their own dignity as a consequence of their abuser’s financial manipulation. Therefore, there are many women (and men) in our own local communities who have had their intrinsic human rights violated unjustifiably. Such is where Share the Dignity handbags play a role.

On Saturday, we collated together 150 handbags full of shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, toothbrushes, combs and several other items that are then given to women’s domestic violence shelters. They end up well used, and empower women to prioritise their health and wellbeing, providing them a small (if not decent) foundation to flourish on following a traumatic relationship.

Similarly, the birthing kits we assembled contained objects such as soap, scalpels, pieces of string and gloves. The string facilitates easier passage to cutting the umbilical cord, while the glove, for example, prevents disease transmission between mothers and nurses. As a result, birthing kits dramatically reduce maternal and infant mortality in regions that lack sufficient healthcare systems for childbirth.

Inherently, these are not fixes for the systematic infrastructural deficiencies in these countries which are often fueled by government negligence, gender discrimination (of women) or national poverty. Birthing kits are, however, the means to approach gender healthcare equality and safer births, enabling those not born in the “lucky country” Australia, to still have some degree of healthcare access in the present.

No matter the reason or situation, it is imperative that we advocate and aid groups who have not been enabled their human rights, for that is the definition of a truly moral society.
