Our school came together on 16 August 2024 in honour of Mary, the Mother of Jesus, being taken into heaven at the end of her earthly life, both body and spirit. It was a momentous day for Sancta Maria College as we all shared a sense of reverence as the crowd of students and teachers walked into the auditorium to the uplifting hymn “Gather Your People”.
Abigail and Ethan, our Special Character Prefects, opened Mass. The Mass was celebrated with Father Larry, who beautifully guided the school through prayer and enabled a further connection to our faith and the special link this anniversary has with our school.
At Sancta Maria College, this years’ Assumption Mass was more than just a time for prayer; it was a reaffirmation of identity and purpose that echoed the principles that define the mission of the school. A special thanks to those involved in making Mass special, particularly the Special Character Prefects, Mr. Tamayo, Mrs. Madison, and the Worship Band.
