Cultural Mural designed by Chisholm students. During the term, Chisholm has been liaising with the Jarara unit to plan a new cultural mural that will be designed and painted by our students.
The Jarara Indigenous Education Unit works with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students and their families across primary and secondary Catholic schools in the Diocese of Parramatta. Their aim is to promote the importance of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander culture and history throughout the Diocese of Parramatta by building cultural awareness and capacity of all.
The mural will be reflective of the landscape and animals in the Hawkesbury area. A series of workshop days have been planned so that all students will be able to learn more about our Australian Indigenous cultural background. This will enable all students to contribute ideas that will make the mural have a significant meaning to each of them.
Our Ignite day will be centered around this and more detail will be given at our first school assembly in Term 4 about the different events that will be happening in preparation for our mural. In Week 3, all students will take part in workshops to contribute to ideas. Bede Polding students will work alongside Chisholm students on Tuesday 29th October to paint the final design.

Fire Safety with the RFS! We were lucky to have a visit from the team at NSW Rural Fire Service - Hawkesbury Headquarters. Our students learned about fire risks, how to stay safe in a fire emergency, and the importance of “Get Down Low and Go, Go, Go!” They also explored simple ways families can protect their homes from fire and bushfire. Chisholm students now know how important it is to have a family evacuation plan and they may even be coming home with some ideas for you to put into practice! A big thank you to Hawkesbury Headquarters Rural Fire Brigade for helping keep our students informed, prepared and safe. #chisholmcatholicprimaryschool #firesafety #RFS

Our students proudly represented their favourite teams and sports for Jersey Day! From footy and soccer to netball and everything in between, our school was bursting with colour, team pride and sporting spirit! But Jersey Day is about more than just wearing your favourite jersey. Jersey Day raises awareness about organ donation and encourages important conversations. It was wonderful to see our students getting behind this important cause while celebrating their love of sport with their friends. #chisholmcatholicprimaryschool #jerseyday2026 #chisholmcommunity
