On Tuesday 24 May, the Year 7 students were given the opportunity to invite some of the special and significant people in their lives to the College. We began the morning with a Welcome Assembly and liturgy in Centennial Hall where the Principal, Mr Philip Morison, welcomed these important people in the lives of our youngest students, along with myself and Ms Elizabeth Keogh, Deputy Principal — Mission.
The Year 7 students then walked their special guests around the College grounds, showing them the areas of their school that have become an important part of their everyday College life. This included the Mansfield building, the Heritage Room inside Mount Saint Joseph, the new Mercy Learning Centre and, of course, the canteen.
The morning ended with a cup of tea or coffee in McAuley Hall where the students and their special people could mingle with other members of our community. Our Year 7 students loved showing family and friends around their school.
Thank you to all the individuals who came to this special day and helped our students understand how important and valued they are.
