St Michael’s student Macie Parkinson, together with her partner, competed in Level 4 Acrobatics at the State Championships held at the Sydney Gymnastic Aquatic Centre [SGAC] in Rooty Hill on September 8-9.
They were awarded second place overall for women’s pair and went on to compete for NSW in the National Clubs Carnival in Queensland.
At this event, Macie and her partner competed against 23 other pairs. They won first for Balance and fourth for Dynamic which placed them first overall!
Macie loves being with her friends and learning new skills she couldn’t do before, especially facing her fears. “I was scared of falling from heights, but on Friday I fell and realised that the worst that could happen is hurt myself and just get up again.”
What is Macie’s dream? “To be a ‘base in acro’ and go to the Olympics!”
Congratulations Macie!

☯️ Throwing it back… 💚 A little Monday throwback to our relaxing T’ai Chi sessions! 🍃✨ Our students loved slowing things down, finding their focus and building balance, one gentle movement at a time. 🧘♀️💫 Sometimes the quietest moments create the biggest impact. #StMichaelsBaulkhamHills #Throwback #TaiChi #MindfulMoments #StudentWellbeing #PrimarySchoolLife #LearningBeyondTheClassroom #CatholicEducation #SchoolCommunity #GrowingTogether #BalanceBodyMind #SydneySchools

Faith in Action 🤍✨ Yesterday, our staff stepped away from the classroom and into a day centred on what it truly means to live our mission. 💙 We began by celebrating Parish Mass before spending time with the wonderful residents at MacKillop House, sharing conversations, smiles and plenty of joy. 🏡💛 Back at school, our staff rolled up their sleeves to pack essential items for Jesuit Social Services and prepare sandwiches for the Vinnies Van, putting faith into action through service to our wider community. 🥪🛍️ We were also privileged to welcome Ana Pintos, who challenged and inspired us through her presentation, Being and Living Mercy: God’s Mission, reminding us that even the smallest acts of kindness can have a lasting impact. ✨ A meaningful day of prayer, service and reflection, as we continue striving to live out our school motto of Knowledge, Faith and Love every day. 🙏💙 #StMichaelsBaulkhamHills #KnowledgeFaithLove #FaithInAction #LivingMercy #CatholicEducation #CatholicSchoolsParramatta #MissionInAction #ServingOthers #Community #VinniesVan #JesuitSocialServices #StaffDevelopment #MakingADifference #SchoolCommunity #StMichaels #PrimarySchool #BaulkhamHills #CSPD #CatholicSchool

What's It Really Like to Send Your Kid to a Catholic School?
If you've ever assumed that attending a Catholic school means you have to be Catholic and that the fees are expensive, you're not alone. It's a common perception, but for many families, the reality looks quite different.
