The Jubilee Prayer 

Father in heaven,

may the faith you have given us

in your son, Jesus Christ, our brother,

and the flame of charity enkindled

in our hearts by the Holy Spirit,

reawaken in us the blessed hope

for the coming of your Kingdom.

May your grace transform us

into tireless cultivators of the seeds of the Gospel.

May those seeds transform from within both humanity and the whole cosmos

in the sure expectation

of a new heaven and a new earth,

when, with the powers of Evil vanquished,

your glory will shine eternally.

May the grace of the Jubilee

reawaken in us, Pilgrims of Hope,

a yearning for the treasures of heaven.

May that same grace spread

the joy and peace of our Redeemer

throughout the earth.

To you our God, eternally blessed,

be glory and praise for ever.

Amen

As the end of the term draws to a conclusion, we offer in gratitude all that has taken place over the term, including the struggles and the many highlights that our community has experienced. The end of Term 3 is always one of mixed emotions, especially for our Year 12 cohort. With some nostalgia they look back over their past 6 years at the College and know that their official school education has concluded. With lots of excitement they look forward to the future, which I know is a future of hope instilled in them by a Catholic education. It is a future where they know they can make a real difference in the lives of those who they will meet.

I thank all of our graduating class of 2025 for their outstanding contributions across the whole breadth and life of the College, and on behalf of the Holy Spirit College community I wish them every success and happiness in the future. 

I would like to personally extend my appreciation to Ms Fennell, who has been Acting Principal in my absence this term. It was quite obvious upon my return how admirably she fulfilled the role with the support of Ms Burcher, Ms Mollica, Mr Merola and Ms Townend, all of whom also took on different roles in my absence. 

I wish all our community a restful and safe break.

Mr Christopher Agnew
Principal
