Farewell Assembly Prayer

Loving Father, 

how wonderful are the works of Your hands. 

As we gather here today to celebrate a step forward into new places with new people and new experiences, 

let us not forget the blessings that follow behind us.

For our College, which has given us a safe place to learn and a strong foundation to build upon as we take this next step into Your world. 

For our teachers, who have so richly loved and cared for us, even at our worst. 

For our families, who have cheered us on to the finish line and stood by our side’s through the many bumps in the road. 

And on this day especially, 

we thank You for the friends that we have found among our classmates. 

Just as our Mazenod Hymn says, 

let us continue to always show our care 

and thank God for His love each day. 

Let us love each other fearlessly and seek 

Your will earnestly all the days of our lives.

In Your Name we pray,

Amen.

Morning Mass 

Week day Masses begin at 8:00am in the College Chapel. However, Wednesday morning Mass begins at 8:10am. These Masses are assigned to a group of students who are involved in their preparation and focus on a particular theme or feast day. Below is a table outlining this term’s Wednesday Masses to which everyone from the Mazenod community is extended a warm invitation to attend.

Term 4: Wednesday Masses

Community Outreach At The Cathedral

During the school holidays and the first week of Term 4, members of the Mazenod College community have joined with the Shopfront and the Cathedral Parish to provide outreach to some of the most vulnerable members of our community – the homeless and lonely. This occurred on Tuesdays over the three weeks, with volunteers providing visitors with toasties, hot drinks, soup, cake and hospitality. 

Our volunteers included a large group of our Mazenod staff and some of their family members as well as students from the Cebula community. This is a wonderful initiative that has been provided by the Shopfront, but it would not be possible without the generous support by school communities such as our own.
