CONGRATULATIONS, ST JOHN’S COLLEGE, DARWIN, 60 YEARS
An MSC congratulations to St John's because for 30 years there was a strong MSC presence, Principals, staff of Brothers and Priests. The College belongs to the Diocese of Darwin, but from 1960 for about 30 years, it was staffed by MSC. After the destruction of Cyclone Tracy on Christmas Day 1974, there was a collaboration with the OLSH Sisters on the staff. Since the 1990s, there has been a lay staff. There is a Chevalier campus of the college.
Our 2020 College Opening Mass which will be held at St Mary's Star of the Sea Cathedral, Smith Street Darwin. Our Principal celebrant will be the Most Reverend Charles Gauci Bishop of Darwin.
The theme for 2020 will be 'Strong in Faith' as we will be celebrating 60 years since the College was founded in 1960.
