The Blessing of Unity Dwells Amongst Us.
This morning’s Father’s Day Breakfast celebrated the fathers, carers and father-figures who are such an important part of the St Aloysius College community.
We were privileged to hear from Professor Mathews Nkhoma, Scott Ellerton and Professor Ramon Spaaij, who offered profound reflections on the values of belonging and community, the power of self-belief and hard work, and the importance of embracing challenges with curiosity.
Their words were a powerful reminder of the role that community plays in helping young people develop confidence, curiosity, a sense of belonging, and the capacity to meet challenges with courage and possibility.
We thank everyone who came together this morning to share in the blessing that is the St Aloysius community. In particular, we extend our heartfelt thanks to our speakers for the gifts of their time and wisdom; our student performers; our staff; and our extremely generous raffle prize donors.
Together, the breakfast and raffle raised more than $2,000 for Mercy Works and Sr Mai Nguyen-Doan’s Sudan Project.
