Last night we welcomed over 500 colleagues from Systemic and Congregational Schools, our Clergy, Chancery Staff and Catholic Schools Broken Bay office staff for the Annual Diocesan Staff Mass celebrated by Most Rev Bishop Anthony Randazzo and concelebrated by the clergy of the Diocese.
We came together in a spirit of unity as we aim to inspire hearts and minds to know Christ and to love learning. We celebrated our new staff and new leaders who were commissioned by Bishop Anthony and recognised staff who have served Catholic Education for an extraordinary number of years (25, 35, 40, 45 and 50 years). We are grateful for the gifts and talents that each and every one of you brings to our schools.
We were privileged to witness a beautiful Acknowledgment of Country, by Michelle Moylan – Learning Partner: Aboriginal Education and three generations of her family.
