Mother’s Day Breakfast

The 2019 Mother’s Day Breakfast was again an enormous success and a great celebration of our mothers and female carers and the important role that they play in the lives of our students.

A big thank you to all of the volunteers who helped to make this event possible; transforming the Gym into a beautiful dining room, arriving early to serve and cleaning up after over 530 people had enjoyed the morning’s festivities.  A special thank you to Michelle Petersen and Lou Harris for their many hours of hard work co-ordinating this very successful event.  Thank you also to Anna Di Medio for sharing with us her experiences as “a De La Mum” over the past 16 years.

Thank you to Katrina Muir from Madame Flavour Tea for generously donating tea sample boxes for each of our mothers this year. We also thank the following sponsors for their generous donations of prizes for our raffle, which raised over $1,100!

We encourage you to have a look at some of the wonderful photographs of the morning and enjoy reading College Captain Liam Jenkins’ speech.
