β Feast Day of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop β Today, the St Nicholas of Myra community gathered to celebrate the Feast Day of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop. Australia's first Saint holds a special place in our school's history, with Mary MacKillop and the Sisters of Saint Joseph serving at St Nicholas of Myra from 1880. Their legacy of faith, service and education continues to inspire our community today. Father Rojan reflected on Saint Mary MacKillop's words: "Do all you can with the means at your disposal, then calmly, leave the rest to God." A simple but powerful reminder to always do our best, trust in God, and live with faith each day. May we continue to follow the example of Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop through our kindness, service and commitment to living in the way of Christ.
