​Every year at ÁñÁ«ÊÓƵ»ÆƬ, we plan that the very first time we gather as a whole school community, that it will be in prayer. On Wednesday, 13 February, all students and staff (except Kindergarten) gathered in the Savio Centre to pray. Our focus was to give thanks to God for our College community and to ask God to guide us and watch over us throughout the year.
