Centenary of Foundation Stone
The first event in this very special year for the College was a celebration of the blessing of the foundation stone on December 13th, 2008.
To celebrate this very significant event two long term staff members, Mr. Neil Brotherton and Mr. Darren Chantler prepared a multimedia presentation on the school's 100 year history. This presentation was shown to Year 7 - 9 students following the Advent Mass on Monday 15th December, 2008.
The presentation showcased the various College Principal's, College events and world events that have taken place over the past 100 years.
Shown below are some of the picture highlights of that presentation.
