Celebrating 150 Years of SJMS

09.08.22

On Monday 8 August 2022 we gathered as a whole school to celebrate two important events, the sesquicentenary of our school and Mary MacKillop Feast Day.

We welcomed family, friends and special guests to our William St campus for a liturgy and whole school performance.

We then walked the path Mary MacKillop herself walked as we journeyed to our Bridge St campus, displaying student artwork on banners representing this special day.

At Bridge St we gathered for morning tea and speeches, after which everyone enjoyed buddy activities and a sausage sizzle lunch.

Thank you to everyone who helped today!

Thank you to those who joined us to celebrate, volunteered to help us walk, and/or helped with morning tea.

Thank you to Otto for cooking the BBQ lunch.

Thank you to Foodland Norwood for supporting our event and donating to our celebration.

What a wonderful celebration, honouring 150 years of St Joseph’s Memorial School!
