Official opening and blessing of Murphy’s Café outdoor seating area

Posted on in Major, General, Senior School

On Tuesday 24 July, the St Mary’s College community celebrated the blessing and official opening of our new Murphy’s Café outdoor seating area.

We were privileged to be joined on this occasion by a number of special guests from Catholic schools across Tasmania, with Father Bernard Perera blessing the space and leading us all in prayer.

This new sheltered space will provide a beautiful outdoor environment for our students and staff to enjoy, maximising opportunities for dining, socialising and relaxing ‘al fresco’ without exposure to the elements.

We all agree that the modern design, which incorporates wooden tables, benches and seating made from sustainable materials, has enhanced the College Green, and we’re excited to take advantage of the space during the upcoming warmer months!

The College offers its thanks and gratitude to everyone who has played a part in bringing this space to life, in particular, our talented Property Services Manager, Barry Figgel and his Maintenance team, whose hard work and dedication was the driving force behind this project’s success.
