One of the new initiatives at St Mary's College is the monthly Breakfast Club. In an effort to reclaim our Catholic Schools and reach out to our Catholic students at St Marys we gather on Wednesday morning after school devotion for: prayers, breakfast and discussion. By gathering as a group our Catholic students (21 of 940) can develop some identity and support one another in their faith. Here you see some of the group with porridge in one hand a fresh jelly coconut in the other. Next month they want muffins...Sunday, October 12, 2008
