Our school provides opportunities for students, staff and parents to know and celebrate their Catholic faith. This is done through the religious life of our school. Members of our community experience a rich liturgical and prayer life, celebration of the Sacraments, faith formation, social outreach activities, and opportunities to share faith with each other and with youth from other schools in the Archdiocese.
Liturgical celebrations are of great significance and the community comes together in St Mary’s church to celebrate. We support students in their learning and faith formation through monthly grade Masses, assemblies and school celebrations.
Throughout their time at St Mary’s students have the opportunity to attend various retreat days including interschool faith celebrations, Sisters of Mercy leadership days, as well as representing the school at diocesan celebrations.
School Prayer: The Suscipe of Catherine McAuley
My God, I will belong to you forever.
Teach me to trust in You because I know you love me
and will always be near me.
Help me always to obey You even when it is hard.
Take from my heart all fear.
Help me to never be sad, but always joyful,
knowing that You are my God and that someday
I will be with You in Heaven.
Amen
