In this year’s Australia Day Honours Awards, our former Principal, Julie Ryan, was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for service to secondary education. Julie has made significant contributions to Catholic Education for so many years and this is a richly deserved award.

Students, staff, smiles, bells, noise, chatter, movement, laughter, energy … and so much more. Perhaps the best and most overwhelming vista at OLMC this week is the smiles – they are ever present and highly contagious (forgive the pun)! As the curve flattens and staff and senior students return, there have been a few ‘spoils’ on hand to celebrate the milestone, including the trusted PARTY PIES!
