MacKillop Day

MacKillop Day marked the celebration of the feast day of Mary MacKillop. She is Australia's first saint and House Icon of our College. Notably, this October is her 10th anniversary since being declared a saint in 2010. Mary MacKillop came from a large family and as the eldest, cared for her younger siblings. This began the start of her care and compassion through teaching that led her to 'not see a need without doing something about it'. In a similar way the students in the MacKillop House belong as members of a family, where the older students look out for the younger ones. We celebrated the day, by joining together as a House by wearing red and playing games on the oval organised by the Senior school students. An enjoyable time together was had by all.
