Page 25 3 The Marist Tradition Beginnings Marcellin Champagnat was born in 1789. He was a country boy from a small French hamlet called Le Rosey in the hilly country to the south west of Lyon. Marcellin was a raw-boned country lad, somewhat reserved but generally frank and open with people, not overly literate but well skilled as a handyman, and well schooled in religious practice. A priest of the diocese visited the Champagnat family home to seek likely young men to become priests. The idea appealed to Marcellin, and he decided to accept the advice. He was ordained a priest in 1816. Marcellin was part of a group that wanted to start a new order in the church. The new order was called Marists. Marcellin saw fit to stress the need to provide Brothers who would instruct the neglected youngsters of rural areas. This work was so dear to his heart that the group entrusted its future to him. Marcellin, whilst attending to a dying youth, realised that some young people knew nothing about the truths of faith. It was here that two young men responded to his proposal, so he bought a house. Work, study and prayer were the daily round and, from this modest beginning, the first Marist schools emerged. Marist Schools in Australia The first Marist Brother ever to set foot on Australian soil was Brother Michael Colombon, who was trained by Marcellin Champagnat in France. He arrived in Sydney on December 9, 1837. It would be 35 years later that, after numerous requests, the first community of Marist Brothers was established at Harrington Street in the Rocks, the poorest part of Sydney. After the Brothers had begun their work in Sydney, there were requests from other parts of Australia, especially Victoria, for Marist Brothers to take charge of schools. Marist Brothers in Bendigo The Marist Brothers moved to Bendigo in 1893. School began that year in St. Kilian’s Hall. In April 1894 a new two-story building in McCrae Street was completed. This was considered the best and most spacious Brothers’ residence in the province. During this time school numbers increased to 170. The school was well established by 1900 and had gained a strong reputation. The school continued to develop and by 1931 nine brothers were teaching 288 students. The Diocesan Inspector reported that there was splendid discipline in the school, a spirit of industry, enthusiasm, loyalty and school pride. By 1950 the school had gained a reputation for its sporting achievements. It was in that year, for the first time, that a representative school cricket eleven played in senior competition and won several matches. In 1983 it was announced that the Marist Brothers’ College and St. Mary’s College would be amalgamated. The newly amalgamated school would be known as Catholic College Bendigo. 4 History of the Marist Cricket Carnival The concept of Marist schools across Australia meeting annually on the cricket field was born from an idea tossed around between Br Jordan Redden (Sacred Heart College, Somerton Park) and Tony Lantry (St Joseph’s College, Hunters Hill) as they sampled some of the “spirit of the Institute” in Adelaide in 1973. A love of both the Marist traditions and the game of cricket prompted the use of the second of these to further the ideals of the first. From humble beginnings at Hunters Hill in 1974, where Sacred Heart College, Assumption College Kilmore and Marcellin College Bulleen joined the host in a round robin of matches leading to a final, the Carnival grew to maturity, attaining its 21st birthday in Adelaide in 1994. Along the way, St. Patrick’s College Sale replaced Kilmore in 1975, then Ashgrove Brisbane, Marist Canberra and Newman Perth joined the others in Adelaide in 1976 and set the pattern for many years. The original concept of the Carnival was to expose our boys to the wider Marist community, to help them remove school or state blinkers and see there are schools, Brothers, lay staff and boys just like them, with the same ideals and background, and steeped in the same Marist spirit and tradition, in places right across the nation; to have our boys meet these Marist men on and off the cricket field; to provide an opportunity for boys, staff and families to make friends across the nation; to involve parents as workers and supporters; in short, to promulgate and strengthen the Marist message. Giants of men like Br Majellan, Br Crispin, Br Jordan, Br Evan, Br Charles, Tony Lantry and Frank Egan have laid the foundations and ensured we have a very worthwhile and lasting event. The change from boarding school accommodation at the first two Carnivals, to the billeting of players by local Marist families thereafter, helped realise another of the original goals - visiting boys and hosting families forging life-long friendships. 5 Official Functions Tuesday 5 December Team Photographs Sacred Heart College 5.00pm Powhiri and Liturgy Sacred Heart Chapel 5.30pm Food Served Sacred Heart Foyer 6.15pm-7.15pm Players depart with billet families 7.15pm Team Managers meeting Sacred Heart Old Boys Lounge 7.30pm Wednesday 6 December Round 1 Matches begin at 10.15am Happy Hour Sacred Heart Foyer 5.45pm – 7.00pm Thursday 7 December Round 2 Matches begin at 10.15am Happy Hour Sacred Heart Old Boys Lounge 5.45pm – 7.00pm Friday 8 December Round 3 Matches begin at 10.15am Happy Hour Sacred Heart Foyer 5.45pm – 6.45pm Supporters BBQ Saturday 9 December Rest Day Sunday 10 December Mass Sacred Heart Chapel, 8.30am Round 4 Matches begin at 10.30am Happy Hour Sacred Heart Foyer 6.15pm – 7.15pm Monday 11 December Round 5 Matches begin at 10.15am Presentation Dinner Sacred Heart Auditorium 6.30pm –10.30pm 6 Fixtures and Venues Fixture Teams Venue Round 1 Hunters Hill vs Lloyd Elsmore

  • Marist College Canberra Year 11 and 12 Handbook 2020
    Marist College Canberra Year 11 and 12 Handbook 2020 1 Year 11 and 12 Handbook 2020 Marr Street PEARCE ACT 2607 Phone: 02 6298 7200 Fax: 02 6298 7224 Email: [email protected] Mr Matthew Hutchison Website: www.maristc.act.edu.au Headmaster 2 Dear Students The final two years of schooling are, for most, the most memorable and enjoyable time of your school journey. It is a time for leadership opportunities, a time to cement friendships that will support you way beyond your schools days and a time to explore your intellectual capacity and interests. Marist College Canberra provides broad learning options and pathways. This handbook has been designed to assist you and your parents with choosing subjects and in gaining an understanding of the ACT Year 12 Senior Secondary Certificate. I urge you to read through all sections carefully, and to consider the options available so that you can make choices suited to your particular needs. I implore you to base your decisions that match your interest, your ability and preferences reflected in your past ten years of schooling. Please choose wisely, according to what is best for you – not because of the teacher, or because of what your friends are choosing. It is a common mistake for boys to choose subjects, which they think, will help them gain entry into university rather than those that actually interest them, or those which they are capable of successfully completing. This usually results in boys not performing to the best of their ability. Seek the advice of your parents, teachers, the Career Advisor, and your House Dean.

  • Board of Senior Secondary Studies Annual Report 2009-2010
    Board of Senior Secondary Studies Annual Report 2009-2010 Overview The Board of Senior Secondary Studies (the Board) was established in 1991 and the Board of Senior Secondary Studies Act 1997 (the BSSS Act) was enacted in January 1998. The key functions of the Board are to: • provide students with Year 12 Certificates, Tertiary Entrance Statements and vocational certificates • maintain the credibility and acceptance of courses through a regular accreditation program • monitor and support the validity of assessment in years 11 and 12 • improve the comparability of standards across the Territory through moderation procedures • gain the widest possible recognition for the credentials awarded by the Board • service the information needs of the community. During 2009-10, the Board has continued to implement its strategic plan. Key initiatives have included a review of flexible learning and its implications for Board policy, the trialling of some alternative approaches in the peer review moderation process and a technical review of the ACT Scaling Test. The Board has ensured that the ACT has been actively involved in development of the senior years’ Australian Curriculum through participation in the writing process and at consultation workshops. The Board responded to the draft position paper on National Curriculum in the Senior Years and is preparing a response to the recently released draft courses in English, mathematics, science and history. The Board is monitoring the implications of national curriculum on its policies and processes, and will consider a timeframe for implementation, in the next reporting period. There was a significant change in the membership of the Board during 2009-10 as many of the appointments to the Board expired at the end of 2009.

  • MSA Newsletter 4 | 19 March 2019 NOTICES and NEWS COMING UP
    A newsletter for Member Schools of Marist Schools Australia published fortnightly during term time From Dr Frank Malloy Dear Colleagues, As we mourn the victims of the massacre last Friday in Christchurch, the ubiquitous nature and capacity for influence of social media, poignantly arrests us as educators. Social media when used appropriately is a most natural and uplifting sharing of life and experience among family, friends, and colleagues. The live, uncensored, multi media nature of the platform and its incredible reach around the globe is compelling and powerful. It is a form of communication replete with good news and moments of joyous significance. However, as witnessed last Friday, social media can be used as a destructive tool for evil, inciting hatred and inflicting immense pain and suffering. Broadcasted murder of innocent, defenceless people praying to God, violently and indescribably shocks us. The massacre was the antithesis of love, nurture and care, God’s gifts to the unique nature of human kind. In this current global outpouring of grief, sympathy, questioning, and solidarity, what messages do we choose to amplify when listening and sharing with the young people in our care, many of whom are voracious users of social media? On Sunday at Saint Mary’s Cathedral in the presence of Muslim Leaders, Archbishop of Sydney Anthony Fisher OP, spoke to the alienated, resentful, and brutal mindset of the radicalised. Below is an excerpt from the full text, which is commended to you and can be found HERE. If it is real strength you want, you will find it in compassion and mercy, not hate and violence.
