Chavoin Day Celebrations

Celebrating Jeanne Marie Chavoin

Sisters from the Unit of Australia attended Chavoin Day Masses at both Marist Sisters College Woolwich and Cerdon College Merrylands to celebrate the Feast Day of Jeanne-Marie Chavoin.

At the Marist Sisters College Woolwich Mass, the badges of the 2024/2025 College Leaders were blessed and given to those students who are accepting leadership roles.  Another touching tribute to our foundress was the prayer that they prayed during the week.

While at the Cerdon College Mass they celebrated Jeanne-Marie Chavoin, a woman of prayer, vision, commitment and perseverance and acknowledged these qualities in their school leaders.   It was also an opportunity to present the Chavoin Shield. The Chavoin Shield is present to the House which achieved the most points in four categories – Sports,  The Arts, Academic and Service.

St Patrick’s Church Hill (an inner city Marist Fathers Parish) celebrated the feast of our Foundress with a display of images, cards and photos of our Foundress.
