Xanten Founders Day

Xanten Founders Day

On Friday 10 May, Xanten House celebrated their annual Founder’s Day.  Founder’s Day this year was significant as it was the 60th Anniversary. This day officially occurs 11 May and recognises the establishment of the Norbertine Order within Australia. 

 

As a House we started with a Liturgy led by Father Peter at the St Joseph Church. The Liturgy theme of 'Family' was spoken about and explored as Xanten House came together and joined as one. In continuing the theme, we joined together for lunch of freshly made burgers prepared by the Xanten Committee. In our competitive tradition we concluded with a Tug-o-War battle between the Xanten Homerooms with X6 the overall winners of this fun event.

 

 

I would like to thank our House Captain Aldric Ratnasekera. Our Vice Captains, Dylan Wemyss and Marissa Donovan and Xanten Committee Chair, Latitia Bondoc and the Xanten Committee for all their help, organisation and planning to allow this day to be a success. A big thank you to all Xanten Staff for their help on the day especially Miss Carrol Abel who helped in the preparation of lunch.

 

Mr A D'Souza (Head of House - Xanten)
