St Mary MacKillop Feast Day

On Monday 8th of August it was the feast day of St Mary MacKillop. We went to a liturgy in the hall hosted by R6. We learnt about the life of Mary MacKillop and how she devoted her life to caring for those in need. In Room 2 we learnt about Mary's life and found that she followed in the footsteps of Jesus, just as we try and follow in the footsteps of Jesus the Good Shepherd. Mary MacKillop brought her Sisters to New Zealand to start up schools. Some of her Sisters started Good Shepherd School and our syndicates, Sheridan and Connelly are named after them. We also had lots of fun making Mary MacKillop peg dolls.
