\"\"<\/a>On Monday 6 March, our house mass. Fr Aliki from Holy Name of Mary Parish Hunters Hill joined us to celebrate the Eucharist in what was a wonderful opportunity to come together as a community. Our mass allowed our parents and families to develop their\u00a0 understanding of our Patron Marie Francoise Perroton, and her courageous journey to the South Pacific. How a seemingly ordinary woman came to embody Marian simplicity, quietly living a life of service, despite great hardship and isolation. A reminder to Perrotonians here at the College, that their courage is often found in the small daily activities, and yet when everyone acts with courage to live \u201cgoodness above all\u201d we empower others to live courageously as well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I was simply overwhelmed by how creatively and passionately all our Perroton students went about assisting with the planning and execution of our very first Mass. We were blessed with students who volunteered to assist with set up decoration, music, reading, altar serving, and singing. I extend special thanks to our Co-Captain\u2019s Nina Gomez-Niewolik, Grace Murphy and Liturgy Captain Bianca Trunzo.<\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, the evening would not have been the success it was without the assistance from Ms Angela Bowland, Ms Antonina Arcidiacono, and all our Perroton Tutors, who work diligently in support of the girls in Perroton. We ended the evening with a lovely supper on Cerdon Plaza, generously provided by MSCW\u2019s VET Hospitality students under the guidance of Ms Erin Healey, VET Coordinator. This was a fabulous way to celebrate our connection as a House and as a family.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
