Year 7 learn about what it means to be Catholic

Year 7 learn about what it means to be Catholic

On 26 March, Year 7 had the privilege of meeting Sr Fran Milidge OSU, an Ursuline who taught at St Ursula’s and is still working as an integral member of the support staff at the College.

Sr Fran shared her life story and testimony with us. She explained that her decision to become an Ursuline wasn’t easy but it gave her peace. I was most moved by the determination Sr Fran showed in her discernment and the courage she had in educating many young women in Armidale, Ashbury and later Kingsgrove. 

This presentation allowed us to understand that we belong to a Catholic community and, within that, the Ursuline community. We were encouraged to consider ways that we can continue to be inspired by the lives of St Ursula and St Angela Merici, so that together we can ‘Chase the Change’.
