Our amazing Year 7 debating team competed in the grand final round of the Catholic Schools Debating Association competition last Friday night.
While the girls presented a strong and convincing case, unfortunately they were defeated by their opponents. Despite the girls accepting a graceful defeat, their talent must not be overlooked.
The CSDA Debating Competition is the biggest competition of its kind in the Southern Hemisphere, so the fact that our talented ladies made it this far is a huge achievement in itself.
The College community is so proud of the teamwork and determination that they have displayed throughout the entire season, and we are excited to see where 2020 takes them!
Finally, a huge thank you to the families, friends and staff who give up their time each Friday night to support the wonderful work of the debating team!

🐔 Exciting news from the BPC Ag Plot! After the 2024 Avian Influenza outbreak, our old chook house was removed, and the team got to work building a brand-new poultry facility — and it’s nearly complete! 🛠️ Designed and built by staff and senior Ag students, the new setup includes a concrete slab, brick dwarf walls, timber framing, layer boxes, and an automated door for our new hens who arrived last Thursday. 🐣 Huge thanks to the incredible team who made it happen: Mr Fisher, Miss Bracks, Mr Merlino, Mr Leighton, Miss Connor, Miss Lans & Mr McNally 👏 #bedepoldingcollege #southwindsor #blighparknsw #CSPD

They connected with over 100 exhibitors, including universities, colleges, apprenticeship providers and employers — gaining valuable insights into life beyond school. Students also attended expert-led seminars on English and Maths (from actual HSC markers!), career pathways, study tips, and key info from UAC and NESA.

🎶 Bede Polding Shout-Out! 🎶 We’re thrilled to celebrate one of our own – Lachlan Cwojdzinski (Year 11) – who has been selected to attend the prestigious CMAA Academy of Country Music in Tamworth this July! 🌟🎤 Lachlan’s musical journey began with a guitar at age 8, and in just over a year of singing, he’s already making waves in the country music scene. After performing at the Tamworth Country Music Festival earlier this year, he applied to the Academy and was officially selected in May – but had to keep it under wraps until their announcement went live recently! The CMAA Academy is Australia’s leading program for emerging country music talent, offering incredible mentoring from top artists and industry professionals. 🎸 This is a fantastic personal achievement, and we couldn’t be prouder. Congratulations, Lachlan – your Bede Polding community is cheering you on every step of the way! 👏🌾🎶 #BedePoldingCollege #Southwindsor #CMAA2025 #Blighparknsw #CSPD

Yesterday, our College community came together in the Good Samaritan Hall to celebrate our Annual Polding Mass with Fr Adam Carlow from St Monica’s Richmond Parish. This special event marked a time of reflection, gratitude, and unity as we honoured the life and legacy of our Patron, John Bede Polding. A heartfelt congratulations to all our Bede Polding Award recipients, five students from each year group, one current staff member, and one alumni, who consistently embody the values of service, compassion, courage, and faith in action. Your everyday actions truly reflect what Bede Polding College stands for. A special shout-out to Ms Woods on receiving the Staff Polding Award, a well-deserved recognition of your dedication and kindness. And congratulations to Aprille Lim, Class of 2004, who received the Alumni Student Polding Award — a proud moment and a true testament to a life lived in the spirit of our College values. Thank you all for inspiring us through the way you live out our College values. #bedepoldingcollege #SouthWindsor #blighparknsw #cspd
