Our prayer life is central to our Catholic community.
Prayer takes various forms and is celebrated within our College as well as with St Mary's Parish and St Mary's Primary School.
We recognise special feast days and conduct regular liturgies (ANZAC day, Ash Wednesday etc) and masses (Opening Mass to welcome the new school year, Catholic Education Week, Feast Day Mass, Graduation Mass) in the catholic tradition.
Liturgy is also an important component of our fortnightly whole-school Assemblies.
Prayer is conducted daily within each PC, during lessons and at every staff meeting.
The St Mary's College Prayer
We give thanks
For our College,
where minds ignite.
A respectful
community
where hearts unite.
In service
we find purpose,
In courage
we stand strong,
Through justice
we ensure that all
belong.
At St Mary’s
College,
We show compassion
and care.
May our actions
reflect the values we share.
May the Spirits
of Rice and McAuley
inspire
us to create the
world You desire.
Guided by Jesus,
help us to lead,
fair and true to all
in need.
Mother Mary,
pray for us as we
pray for one another.
Amen.
