Student leaders from EREA schools around Australia at CBC.

A story about courage, discovery and challenge I’d like to share with you an event this week which reminded me of the College theme and resonates with what we mean when we say CBC students are men of faith, excellence, community and compassion.

From The Principal WELCOME TO 2012 - DISCOVER, CHALLENGE AND INSPIRE It is my privilege to offer everyone a warm welcome to Christian Brothers College in 2012. This year marks the 250th birthday of our College Founder Blessed Edmund Rice and our 134th year as a College in South Australia. I especially welcome all of our new families and students who began this week. At the Senior Campus Speech Night I announced the 2012 College Theme: Courage to Discover, Challenge and Inspire based on Psalm 31:24, Be strong and let your heart take courage. I thank all of our new families for the courage they have shown in making their new start to College life at CBC.

At about 7.30am on Tuesday morning I visited the Cathedral to offer a prayer for the start of the 2012 academic year. As I knelt, I observed one of our students enter the Cathedral, light a candle and stay in prayer in front of the statue of Blessed Mary. I was deeply touched that this student was a man of prayer, a man of quiet contemplation, a man for whom faith is an integral part of his life.

STAFFING NEWS I am excited to announce new staff in 2012. Our ability to employ highly professional and talented staff is made possible by our growing enrolments and the opportunities for employment gained by the building of the new Junior Campus in 2012. The College community warmly welcomes the following new staff in 2012.

Gospel Spirituality

We invite all people into the story of Jesus and strive to make his message of compassion, justice and peace a living reality within our community.
