In Week 10 of Term 2 we came together as a school community to mark our annual celebration of Delany Day.
Delany Day focuses on reflection and provides us with the opportunity to reflect together on our faith, fellowship, relationships and the life of Daniel Delany, our patron saint.
Daniel Delany was the Bishop of Kildare and Leighlin and the founder of the Brigidine order of Catholic nuns, as well as the Patrician Brothers.
Students and staff joined together in prayer and reflection to understand the ways in which we, like Delany, can leave an authentic legacy on the world through our actions and kindness.
The day as a whole was filled with fellowship, faith and food and provided our community with the opportunity to take a step back from the busy end-of-term activities and reflect on their own life, as well as how they can help those around them as Daniel Delany would.
