Loreto Marraytville hosted the backpack in Adelaide for the last 2 weeks of last term in April. Whilst here, they organised a welcome liturgy with the Head Girl of the school, Georgia Brown dressed in period costume as Mary Ward walking into the hall carrying the backpack. Written into the liturgy was a reflection which she read as “Mary Ward” to the assembly of staff and students. She then presented the backpack to Sr Verna who received it on behalf of the Loreto Marryatville Community.
A number of pages in the journal were allocated to each of the subschools: Primary, Middle and Senior years to allow students to contribute to the journal. Staff across the school also contributed journal reflections as did the ibvm sisters in the community and the College Council.
The School's Deputy Principal Rosalie said, "It was a real privilege to have the backpack and the college community certainly was abuzz with interest and enthusiastically contributed to the journal."
