A Day of Inspiration at Mary MacKillop Place! 

Year 6 had an incredible visit to Mary MacKillop Place!  This was more than just a visit; it was a journey into the life and legacy of a remarkable soul.

Standing before the tomb of Saint Mary MacKillop was truly a humbling experience. The aura of her devotion and strength resonated through the air, reminding us of her extraordinary journey as Australia's first saint. 

Equipped with our iPads, we embarked on a Digital Reflection Journal adventure.  Capturing our thoughts, emotions, and learnings as we wandered through the museum was an immersive way to connect with her story. And the artifacts! Each one spoke of her compassion and dedication, preserving her legacy for generations to come. 

Can you believe it? We had the incredible privilege of touching Mary MacKillop's very own writing desk.  The connection we felt was indescribable – a tangible link to her life's work.

As the day drew to a close, we gathered for a beautiful Mass celebrated by Father Adrian.  Surrounded by the history, devotion, and sense of purpose that Mary MacKillop embodied, we found our spirits lifted and our hearts filled with gratitude.

We are immensely proud of our Year 6 students for embracing this experience with open hearts and minds. Let's carry forward the values and inspiration we've encountered today as we continue on our own journeys.

Thank you, Mary MacKillop, for your enduring light that guides us.
