YEAR 10 PASS ADVENTURES | 🏂❄️ A fabulous first day on the slopes at Thredbo! The conditions were amazing, and we couldn’t have asked for a better day. Lots of happy students experienced snow for the first time. We can’t wait to do it all again tomorrow! #StMaryStarOfTheSeaCollege #Thredbo #Year10PASS #SkiTrip #SnowDays #FirstTimeSeeingSnow

STEM | What an amazing day at the UOW Science and Engineering Challenge with our students coming away with second and fourth place! Our students showcased their incredible talents, tackling complex problems with creativity and teamwork. They designed earthquake-resistant structures, built bridges out of limited materials, and solved a range of problems such as how to provide electricity to a city, or how to trap fish in a sustainable way. These challenges not only tested their teamwork but also developed skills used in careers such as civil engineering, geology, and software development. We’re so proud of their hard work and can’t wait to see where their passion for science and engineering takes them next! 🚀 #STEM #FutureEngineers #ScienceChallenge
