Feast of St Ignatius of Loyola - Friday 31 July

Celebrating the Month of Ignatius

July is a significant month in the life of our College as we celebrate the Month of Ignatius and reflect on the life and legacy of St Ignatius of Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus. It is a time to give thanks for the rich Ignatian tradition that shapes our community and inspires our mission of forming people of competence, conscience, compassion and commitment.

At the heart of Ignatian spirituality is the invitation to find God in all things. St Ignatius encourages us to pause, reflect and discern where God is present in our daily experiences, relationships and learning. Through practices such as the Examen, we are reminded to be attentive, grateful and responsive to the needs of others.

On the Feast of St Ignatius on 31 July, students and staff are participating in a range of activities that celebrate our Ignatian identity. These moments of prayer, reflection, service and community strengthen our shared commitment to being people for and with others.

As we celebrate all things Ignatian, may we continue to embrace the values of courage, generosity, discernment and justice. In doing so, we honour the vision of St Ignatius and contribute to building a community where each person is encouraged to grow, serve and flourish.

We still have one week left for students to gain sponsorship for the Walk For Others on St Ignatius Day - we thank all members of the community who have contributed so far for the House charities and look ahead to a wonderful celebration on the day.
