Cerdon College Merrylands takes Jeanne Marie Chavoin as their school Patron and each year around her feast there is a day to celebrate our Foundress within the school community.  This year because of the limitations imposed by Covid the College was not able to have a full school Mass. Therefore, a liturgical celebration was had in its place within the school setting.  Jeanne Marie Chavoin came ‘back to the future’ and was interviewed by a student in a 21st century context. 

The occasion this year also marked, after 61 years, the last day of the physical presence of a Marist Sister on the Cerdon Staff.  Sr Kate McPhee after a long association with the College finished serving in school ministry moving on to minster elsewhere.  However, there is no doubt that the Marist Spirit is truly alive and well among the staff and students of Cerdon College and we are confident that Mary’s spirit will continue to permeate its life into the future.

The first is Jeanne Marie(Staff Member) being interviewed by a student.

The second is Sr Kate McPhee receiving flowers etc from a student.

The last one is Mrs Loretta Parker [Deputy Principal], Sr Kate McPhee and Mrs Trish Baker [Principal].
