St Monica’s College students celebrated the school community and Saint Monica as part of the annual St Monica’s Week.

The celebrations, which ran from Monday, August 21 to Friday, August 25, included the school’s annual oration, a sports breakfast and carnival.

There was also a youth parliament day, during which Thomastown MP Bronwyn Halfpenny visited the school.

College principal Brian Hanley said it was a fantastic week for the school.

“The return of our annual oration [started] the week of celebrations … the annual sports breakfast is always a highlight for many Monicans and friends of the college.

” We welcome the opportunity to bring together our Monican community and share so many wonderful experiences.”
