Each year we celebrate our patron saint, Mary the Mother of God. Mary has many significant feast dates and the College recognises her on the Feast of the Assumption. This feast day celebrates the end of Mary’s earthly life and assumption into Heaven.

We have a day of fun and activities ending with a concert highlighting the great talent our students and staff have to share. We are very thankful for the endless work of all our staff both preparing and running events on the day. Special thanks to Janet Ross, Andrea O’Grady and Jacqui Powell who consistently go over and beyond to ensure we all have a great day.

We begin the day with a Mass celebrated by Fr Martin Kenny. At the Mass we present Spirit of St Mary’s Awards to acknowledge students who personify the Spirit of St Mary’s through their actions, and possess the personal qualities we honour. These qualities have become the hallmarks of our College, such as – spirituality, pride, integrity, respect and consistent improvement. While COVID meant restrictions on families joining us in person, we were pleased that so many joined us in the live stream and later watching the recording.

In addition to the Pastoral Group Spirit Awards we present two St Mary’s Spirit Medallions. These medallions acknowledge the wonderful contribution that these two students have made in building upon the spirit of our College and it can be said that the College is a better place due to their presence and contribution. Please see below a full list of the 2020 recipients.

God Bless
