Monique Bast (2019) has lived by the advice she shares with current Mater Christi students - ‘If you have a passion, or something that gives you inspiration to get up each day, then follow it as hard as you can!’

Her journey from a ‘quiet and awkward’ teenager to a successful business owner demonstrates how being ‘all-in’ when it comes to your passions can lead to wonderful things!

In the early years of secondary school Monique felt reluctant to share her interest in wildlife for fear of being judged.

Our Year 7s have now begun the Drop Everything and Read (DEAR) Challenge for 2022.

Students were initially asked to respond to the 'Who am I as a reader?' survey. We encouraged them to tell us what they love and what they find challenging about reading.

Knowledge Week in the Learning Commons is all about celebrating our wonderful learning space and the possibilities it can offer. With the theme Rewrite, Renew, Reimagine, we invited students to challenge their perceptions of themselves, their community, and the future.

Pippa Criss-Chisholm’s story echos beautifully, the iconic Ernest Hemmingway quote: ‘It is good to have an end to journey towards, but it is the journey that matters in the end’.

Pippa is true to herself and recognises her own strengths and limitations.

As Term 2 draws to a close, we say a very fond farewell to our Deputy Principal – Staff and Students, Julie Feeney.

Julie’s life has been intertwined with the Mater Christi community – first as a student, then as a parent and staff member.

At our end of Term Assembly, the students farewelled Deputy Principal - Staff and Students, Julie Feeney with some touching and heartfelt tributes, including this one from our College Captains, Sienna and Jasmine, and a guard of honour as Mrs Feeney left the Hall.

Each year, schools are required to collate data for the Nationally Consistent Collection of Data on School Students with Disability (NCCD). The NCCD counts the number of students who receive additional support at school because of a disability. This information helps governments plan funding accordingly.

Term 2 has been an incredibly busy one for sports at Mater. Our Sports Captains, Maudie and Madi, provided a great wrap up of all the sporting achievements at our end of Term Assembly today.

We had a big term of sporting events, with many students excited to get back on the court or pitch to play some of the winter sports for the first time in two years.

Hey everyone, it's your STEM Captains here with a rundown of all things Science, Technology and Maths at Mater Christi!

Our main event for Term 2 was the STEM Cup, which is a school wide event where students do fun STEM-related activities to earn points for their houses.
