From the Religious Education Coordinator

A warm welcome to all in our College community as we commence our new school year. I trust you had a rest-filled holiday break spending time with family and friends. It has been wonderful seeing the students start back at school this week. We are blessed to be part of a lively school community. 

We look forward to the year in hope as we continue to celebrate our Catholic faith and spirituality which is an important facet of our College community. Part of our core work as educators in Catholic schools is to work in partnership with you in educating the whole person. We look forward to doing that through our Religious Education programs and through our faith experiences such as prayer, liturgical celebrations and Marists in Action group.

Opening College Mass

The Opening College Mass will be celebrated at the College on Wednesday 10 February.

Diary Dates

As we prepare for the season of Lent (Week 4) the College will celebrate Ash Wednesday on the 17 February with an ashes liturgy in Houses. 

Meat products will not be available for purchase from the canteen on Ash Wednesday or Fridays in Lent to support our sisters who choose to abstain from meat during  Lent.

Year 12 students will be attending the Retreat at Le Rosey, The Hermitage Mittagong in Week 5.

As we begin this new College year, may we be open to God working in and through us.
