Last week Wednesday our K-10 students celebrated the life of their House Patron, Eileen O'Connor, founder of Our Lady's Nurses for the Poor in Sydney's Eastern suburbs. To this day their work is still carried out.

Fr. McGrath said she devoted herself to the service of the poor, sick, debilitated, distressed, and dying despite suffering from a severe spinal injury as a child, a heart condition, and tuberculosis. Eileen O'Connor chose to follow Jesus' mission and offer her energies to build the kingdom through service to others.

The students celebrated a liturgy before enjoying a fun afternoon with their fellow House members, enjoying games, a doughnut, and an ice block!
