St Spyridon College

The Australian Reptile Park offered students an up-close encounter with some incredible creatures, helping them understand the importance of wildlife and their role in maintaining a healthy planet. Students learnt about their lifestyle, diet, habitat, defense mechanisms, predators and much more. Students got to enjoy an animal interaction session, which gave them the opportunity to handle each reptile.

SENIOR CAMPUS ATHLETICS CARNIVAL 2026
Congratulations to all competitors and spectators at last week's Athletics Carnival.

KM1 students participated in an incursion focused on reusing items, reducing waste, and the importance of recycling. Using commercial offcuts and products, they worked together to create outdoor play equipment and explored how materials can be reused in new ways. This experience encouraged creativity, problem-solving, and an understanding of sustainable practices.

JUNIOR CAMPUS ATHLETICS CARNIVAL 2026

Congratulations to all competitors and spectators at last week's Junior Campus Athletics Carnival.

Year 3 had an exciting excursion to Macquarie University, where students explored solar telescopes, experienced the planetarium, and had the opportunity to ask questions to specialists in the field. It was a fantastic hands-on learning experience that deepened their understanding of space and science while inspiring curiosity and wonder about our universe.

Last Thursday, students competed in the ASISSA Cross Country carnival at Queens Park. We are pleased to announce that 11 of our students placed in the top 10 and will be representing ASISSA at the CIS Cross Country championships later in the term.

Congratulations Kiara M, Christian C, Christian K, Kerry K, Maksim I, Nikolai P, William H, Ari S, Jessica S, Mia S, and Mia D.

The College was excited to welcome contemporary Greek Artist, Caroline Rovithi, as part of her “Two Homelands. One Heart” Australian visit. Bringing her art, her spirit, and a little piece of Greece all the way home to us.

Caroline presented her vision and her story to aspiring Visual Arts students who then took part in a “Release Your Inner Tsarouchi” workshop where the students drew upon the inspiring works to produce their version with the tagline “We can do it”.

We thank Caroline for bringing her love of Greek art, culture, and community to the College.

Last Week, our Year 10 students visited the Junior Campus to share this year’s National Simultaneous Storytime book, Luna Roo, with students from Kindy Minus 1 to Year 3, while Years 4–6 joined the event online in their classrooms.

Our Year 10 students loved the opportunity to connect with our younger students, share their passion for reading, and build relationships across the College. The experience was a wonderful success, and they are already looking forward to collaborating with the Junior Campus again during Book Week where the theme is 'Symphony of Stories'.
