"True Education is a kind of never-ending story - a matter of continual beginnings, of habitual fresh starts, of persistent newness."
- J.R.R. Tolkien

Join us at the 2026 Behaviour and Diverse Learning Symposium on Monday 4 and Tuesday 5 May. One of the key current and emerging issues being explored at the symposium is the new NSW Anti-bullying Framework.

“Then the angel said to the women in reply, “Do not be afraid! I know that you are seeking Jesus the crucified. He is not here, for he has been raised just as he said.” (Mt. 28:5) In the quiet of the empty tomb, sorrow is transformed into joy, and death gives way to life. The women, filled with awe and anticipation, become the first witnesses of the Resurrection, running to proclaim the Good News that He is risen.

"When Jesus had taken the wine, he said, “It is finished.” And bowing his head, he handed over the spirit." (Jn 19:30). On this solemn day, we behold the mystery of the Cross, the ultimate act of love. Christ suffers and dies for the forgiveness of our sins, offering Himself so that we might have eternal life.

Holy Thursday draws us into one of the most sacred nights of the Church, where Christ gives us the Most Holy Eucharist, institutes the priesthood, and shows us the depth of His love through humble service. 

We are pleased to announce speakers Dr Shiralee Poed and Bryan Jeffrey, who will lead key discussions on diverse learning at the CSNSW 2026 Behaviour and Diverse Learning Symposium on Tuesday, May 5.
