Mary Bailey House \u2013 a performance that sparked a connection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We recently had the pleasure of welcoming the St Lucy\u2019s Fun Squad to Del Monte for a joyful concert that delighted children from Mary Bailey House, as well as students from the College Prep class and St Lucy\u2019s satellite school. The Fun Squad consists of four enthusiastic Year 12 students from St Lucy\u2019s at Wahroonga, who performed songs from The Wiggles and other favourite children’s groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mary Bailey House preschoolers loved the Fun Squad, who had them laughing, singing and dancing throughout the performance. More than just a concert, the visit was a celebration of inclusion, connection and the sharing of talents across our wider community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To thank the Fun Squad for coming to Del Monte, our preschoolers prepared a gift bag of special treats and wrote a card that read: ‘Thank you for doing the show for us. We loved it. Love, the Treefrogs.<\/em>‘ They proudly delivered it to the cast and crew before the show.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Following the performance, the Mary Bailey House preschoolers were eager to learn more about the Fun Squad and had many questions that a St Lucy\u2019s teacher was happy to answer. Their curiosity sparked an exciting new opportunity for connection, with the suggestion that our preschoolers write letters to the St Lucy\u2019s students and receive replies in return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What began as a memorable performance has already inspired the beginnings of an ongoing exchange between the students of St Lucy\u2019s and the children of Mary Bailey House. We look forward to nurturing this connection and welcoming the Fun Squad back again in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
