Our Year 10 Early Commencement Business Services students recently stepped into the professional world, completing work placements at several local businesses: MTC Future Ready Blacktown, TLE Electrical Blacktown, Zeal Services Rouse Hill, Officeworks Penrith, and Wiseberry Real Estate Richmond. These placements allowed students to apply their classroom skills to real-world scenarios, directly supporting their competency tasks for the Certificate III in Business Services and their HSC. It was great to see our students contributing so positively to these industries while balancing their school commitments, we are incredibly proud of them.

Round 3: 32-0 This week we played our third game in the preliminary stage of the 2026 NRL Schoolboy Cup against the highly rated Central Coast Sports College on home soil. The game was intense from the first tackle and Central Coast lived up to all expectations in the first 15 minutes. Every metre of territory was hard earned but eventually Patties managed to breakthrough the Central Coast defence and slowly but surely gained ascendancy. The tough encounter was great preparation for the finals that start in Term 3. Thank you to our spectators for their great support, onto the quarter finals!

On Tuesday the 16th of June, Patrician Brothers’ College Blacktown delivered a spectacular performance at the CSPD Pasifika FiaFia Night. The evening was a vibrant celebration of the hard work and rich diversity that defines our school community. We were incredibly proud to see our students represent their culture and the College in such a respectful manner. We extend our gratitude to St John XXIII Catholic College, Stanhope Gardens, for hosting this wonderful event, along with CSPD. Most importantly, we want to thank the students who represented us with such pride and enthusiasm. In the weeks leading up to the event, our students dedicated many lunch breaks and after-school hours to rehearsals, consistently demonstrating a deep passion for their heritage. This success would not have been possible without the tireless guidance and supervision of Mr Alan Niulesa, Ms Jane Solo, Mr Ezrah Lavemai, Mr Delahoya Manu, Mr Osa Levae, and Mr Francis Nansen. We are extremely grateful for the many hours they sacrificed to prepare the boys for the event. Finally, a heartfelt thank you to the families and friends who attended to show their support - your presence meant the world to our students.

On Wednesday evening, our Year 7 team debated against Clancy Catholic College from Hoxton Park in the first session of Elimination Finals of 2026 CSDA Debating. The team members; Emmanuel Jamieson, Morgan Leary and Fredrich Brillo made the College proud with their performance and presentation throughout the entire season and this week was no exception. Unfortunately, some of our team were unwell, and Fredrich offered to step in, not wanting the team to forfeit, even though he was not 100% himself. The boys performed very well, but in a high-quality and hard-fought debate, we went down narrowly. We commend them on their outstanding achievement of making it to the finals in their first season as debaters. Our Year 12 team has made it through the Quarter Finals, taking place on Friday 26th June. Congratulations again to all the students who have participated this season, and onto the next!
