Mother Daughter Mass and Supper

It was lovely to see so many mothers, grandmothers and daughters at the College to celebrate our beautiful Mother Daughter Mass and Supper. We were very fortunate to have Father Michael from Holy Name of Mary Parish, Hunters Hill, who celebrated the Eucharist with our many mums and daughters. The Mass highlighted the love and nurture the mothers and mother figures provide. A huge thank you to all who participated in the mass. 

Mrs Fiona O’Conner shared her wisdom and experiences in nurturing her daughter in the spirit of motherhood: 

But the truth is, motherhood is a constant balancing act: holding on and letting go, stepping in and stepping back, guiding and learning at the same time. And the beautiful thing — and the thing I remind myself of often – is that my daughters teach me just as much as I teach them. They show me new ways of seeing the world, they challenge me, they soften me, and they remind me that love is not something we perfect; it’s something we practise. 

Today is a celebration of that love imperfect, patient, evolving, and deeply powerful. To every mother here: you are doing better than you think. And to every daughter: you are the reason we keep trying, keep learning, and keep saying yes. 

Happy Mother’s Day to you all, and Thank You to the girls who made us Mothers.
