Last Thursday we officially set forth our 2018, year 12 cohort into the world but not before they celebrated a couple of more 'lasts'! Their last Assembly as Thomas More students was held, where our leaders, Ben Tran and Janny Liao inspired not only their peers but all of the Staff as well with their speeches. They had their last shared lunch with staff and on Friday morning, a breakfast celebration together. We celebrated their commissioning Mass at St Augustine's Church with family and friends on Thursday evening, where we were treated to the beautiful sounds of Va Utopia Liturgical Band, which consists of current and past students.

We wish this amazing group of students all the very best in their future endeavours!

"The Power Intercultural Program is designed to celebrate the vibrancy of cultural diversity and expression in Australia. It promotes inclusion and builds social cohesion by recognising the positive contribution of different cultures."

For the second year in a row, Thomas More College girls made their way into the Grand Final of the Intercultural Power Cup. They played the game in the spirit it was intended, with a sense of inclusion and fun! Some of the boys came along to support them and also take part in the Port Adelaide Power v Melbourne, pre game entertainment. Congratulations to all of the students that took part in the carnival and to their teacher/coach, Dwayne Treasure and assistant coach, Kerri Frost.

Congratulations to TMC old scholar, Mimona Abdalla! What an absolutely amazing, however not surprising, achievement by Mimona

Mimona Abdalla, 19 of Salisbury East, migrated to Australia at a young age, whilst learning English and overcoming racism. Mimona's experiences motivated her to found Women of MYSA and co-organise last year's Miss Africa Event. Mimona participates in the Salisbury Youth Council and is currently studying Health and Medical Science. She recently returned to Sudan, establishing English classes, and wishes to practise medicine there soon.

This morning at TMC, we celebrated the feast of Palm Sunday in a whole school liturgy.

Palm Sunday is the final Sunday of Lent, the beginning of Holy Week, and commemorates the triumphant arrival of Christ in Jerusalem, days before he was crucified.
