Opening Prayer

 

Hail, Guardian of the Redeemer,
Spouse of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
To you God entrusted his only Son;
in you Mary placed her trust;
with you Christ became man.

Blessed Joseph, to us too,
show yourself a father
and guide us in the path of life.
Obtain for us grace, mercy, and courage,
and defend us from every evil.
Amen.

Inviting Professionals in Different Fields of Expertise

The College is seeking professionals and field experts to join our Year 10 girls in a Q&A session as part of Futures Week in June. We have surveyed the girls as to the pathways that they are most interested to learn more about and they have come up with; varying Medical Professions, Lawyer, Psychologist, Social Worker, Journalist, Real Estate, Engineering, Beauty, Business and Hairdressing careers.

Medical field includes:

  • Dentist, Surgeon, Physio, Nurse, Occupational Therapy, Speech Pathologist, Dental Nurse, Mid-wife, Dietitian/Nutritionist and Radiologist

Futures Week aims to provide Mary Mackillop girls with experiences and opportunities that will help them to make decisions about their future study pathways and career opportunities.

Whilst the College will be bringing in guest speakers from industry we would also love to involve the Mary Mackillop Community.
