On Sunday May 5, the School held its annual Birthday Chapel service to mark 135 years of Shore. In so many ways, the School stands on the shoulders of others who have gone before. In May 1889 at the opening ceremony day, Bishop Barry said: \u201cI hope that when this country colony should celebrate its second centenary there will be generation after generation of men who have been trained in the Church of England school and who have been real servants of God and their country<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One hundred and thirty five years later, we can give God thanks that so many boys have gone through the School and continue to do so as they live lives of service. Indeed, we have just recently celebrated ANZAC Day, and our Shore Polished Pennies service reminded us of the service of so many Shore boys to their country. It was, therefore, appropriate at this service on Sunday to give God thanks for Shore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was wonderful to hear the choir sing under the direction of Mr Lachlan Massey, to pray for our Shore Community and to also hear from God\u2019s Word about the wonderful good news of Jesus. At the conclusion of the service, there was the opportunity to have a family photo and a photo of parents and sons to mark the occasion. In many ways, we want to echo Bishop Barry\u2019s words from 1889, and we hope that for generations to come, there will be thousands more students who have passed through Shore and seek to be servants of others in their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
